Any one know what vehicle the rear ARB bushes are from? I know that the bar is TVR and looking at the bushes there are no marks on them at all. I just thought that whilst I had the bar off I would replace tham.

I have got the Steve Heath Droplinks, thats why I have taken out the ARB as it needed a bit of adjustment :-). Now I am going to put it back in I wanted to know what the 2 rubber bushes that the ARB is mounted to the chasis are from so that I can replace them.

Are they the same as the fronts? If so should be a Ford number stamped on them. Believe they are something like mk3 escorts, around £3 a piece.

Guys, is there a definitive answer on the source of the rear ARB bushes / brackets? I need a new bracket for mine.

I can tell you the fronts are sierra/granada mk3 just purchased from Fords £3.6+vat each,the pt/number on the sides is a good onethe rears i cant comment on, they don,t look familiar to me(not the same as fronts) but if their from something old then thats possibly why.

Another thread inferred that TCS would have some poly bushes for ARBs, if you are polyminded...

Andy, that part no. would be super handy if you can dig it out! I am fitting PU bushes, that's when I noticed that one of the brackets had taken a right old smack and properly deformed.
