Silent bushes - The_Flying_Doctor - 11-01-2020
Hi does anyone know where I can purchase silent bushes. I am building a special and need to source them for modifications to the front and rear suspension?

Google "silentbloc bushes uk"

Do you mean silentbloc bushes ? Obviously it'll depend on the O/S and I/S diameter and length you require for your special's suspension modifications whether these would be readily available:

Better axle location will be provided by standard pins and bushes, there is no give in them when new although they will of course wear over time.
