Brought a set of bushes today, but was suprised to see that the rear 'A' Frame bushes do not have a metal outer sleeve on them. Looking in the bible the originals certainly do, does anyone know if they go straight into the frame or do they use the old outer sleeve?

They are rock hard though so i'm assuming they are a direct replacement. Any tips most welcome!

Cheers,

Andy.

Did some bushes on a trailing arm and there were no outer, just inner.

Cheers Jeff, looks like they just go straight into the frame then.

Gareth I got the A frame bushes along with complete front anti roll bar, drop link and leading link bushes and associated washers from a classified ad, powerflex ones at a very resonable price!!

Just the front wishbone kit to buy now from RT, then avo's and springs and then the hard part of fitting it all!
