I am looking to replace some of the suspension bushes on my Tornado. The car was originally built in the early 1990s. The specification has changed slightly and the style and size of the Metalastik bushes has altered.
Are there any Tornado owners (vehicle circa 1990s) who have replaced these style bushes as per the original specification?
Photos will be posted asap but the dimensions of the bush are :-
OUTER CASING
Outer Diameter........15/16"
Length....................1 3/8"
INNER (CRUSH) TUBE
Inner Diameter........7/16th
Length...................1 1/2"
Can anyone recommend a UK supplier and even a Part or Product Number from that supplier. Likely these bushes have other vehicle application and if that could be established tracking them down may be more simple!
There is regular discussion on the pros and cons of rubber and poly bushes and both options are being looked at.
A similar posting will follow shortly about Poly bush information.
Many thanks.
