Hello guys,
Just wondering if anyone has had any suspension bushes made or knows where I can get the components to make them.
I need some top shock bushes for my X308 Jag, the bush is simply a rubber disc 52mm external diameter, 15mm internal and 19mm deep and 4 required. I can buy the entire top mount as an assembly but only need the bushes, seems a bit daft spending the money to get the whole lot when it's not needed.
Cheers

It doesn't look that difficult to DIY cast polyurethane bushes if you would consider poly. You can also get rubber casting kits although I have no idea where they'd stand in terms of stiffness.

Try Demon Tweeks or Merlin Motorsport for a generic Polybush material
You should be able to get the size you want however you can drill out the inner hole, cut the bush to length and put the bush in a lathe and reduce diameter
