Just thought I'd share this as I wasn't prepared pay £1 per piece from parts places when you can buy 100 for under a tenner.

My bushes came with thrust washers 31mm OD, 16mm ID, 2.5mm thickness

Will see, they're nylon and I don't see anything special about the ones that came with my bushes.

I'll order 300, which takes it past minimum tenner spend smile as I need to get cracking on with rebuild, only missing pieces right now.

If they're decent I'll let you know and send them to yourselves

Ps - I dremmeled the current ones to make a little bigger for the shock absorbers.

Are you fitting standard bushes or polybush? I'm about to do this but am getting conflicting opinions.

It's a real shame someone can't find where the standard bushes originate from.

Send them the bushes that you remove and see if they can match them to ones they sell?
