Hi,

With everyone changing to Coilovers I am just a bit curious if anyone has replaced the rubber bushes in the lower front suspension arms and the sway bar with neoprene?

From previous experience with Mini's, replacing the rubber bushes with neoprene greatly reduced the wear on these parts and tightened up the over handling.

If someone has, can you tell me where you purchased them from.

Cheers

Benjamin

I didn't find anywhere when i had my coilovers. The only place that was of the slightest help was k-mac.

they said bring down some samples (like ive got some lying around:rolleyes: :confused: ) and they could be able to make a custom set.

that was the best i was able to attain

Thanks Pete.

I figured I would have to have them custom made.

You are correct but you will find neoprene brushes as well as polyurethane.
