sjs Posted October 31, 2005 Report Posted October 31, 2005 Hey, i stripped out my top a-arm today too fit new bushes that i bought last week, when i came to remove them i found that they were needle bearings not bushes, i just want to know if i can fit the bushes instead of the needle bearings as the bushes are the same dimensions and will fit with a few mods, i don't know what make the arms are i just know they are +2 +1. Thanks Steve Quote
sjs Posted October 31, 2005 Author Report Posted October 31, 2005 Yes bushings, sorry guys i'm from the UK that's what we call them. Quote
Justintoxicated Posted October 31, 2005 Report Posted October 31, 2005 (edited) should be fine thats what mine use??? As long as they press in tight. Actualy I dunno I have never sceen a setup like that. Actualy I'm having a really hard time picturing bearings in there, so there is a rod pressed into some bearings?

sjs Posted November 1, 2005 Author Report Posted November 1, 2005 Thanks for replying guys, the arms have a needle bearing on either side that is pressed in level with the outside of the arms the same as bushes, there is then a collar or rod that pushes through the bearings that the bolt goes through, there is no grease nipple on the arms or grease inside the arms, i'm guessing that's why they broke up, any more info if bushes would be ok.
