Hi everyone,

When i showed my baby to someone of our Dutch TVR club he told me that on the front suspension there supposed to be nylon washers on either side of the suspension arms. Hope this makes any sense coming from a non technical Dutchman.

My question is as follows, can anyone please give me the measurements for these nylon washers.

Regards,

'fraid not, but TVR will sell you some if you ask for 'suspension bush thrust washers'.

They are an after thought and are the Cerbera units. Most cars never ever had them and don't need them. So they are also not essential in that some cars show the wishbone movement and others don't. I just keep an eye on the wishbone and if it starts to move, I'll fit them. It is a bit of a boring job and ideally the car needs to have its geometry checked afterwards.

I would do it as and when.
