Alright chaps.

Got all the rear end out of the wedge at the moment, and need to replace some bushes before it all goes back in.
I need to replace the bushes which locate the ends of the trailing arms to the chassis, and also the upper differential mounts to chassis (the ones to which the diff carrier bolts up to).

I have e-mailed David Gerald TVR and been given a quote for 25.85 each for the trailing arm bushes, and 12.50 each for the upper mounts. This is ex-VAT and ex postage!

Seems rather high to me? Wondered if these bushes were borrowed from anything more mainstream which can be substituted, or - if bespoke, there was a cheaper source?

If of course, this is just going rate, I'll stump up and shut up! No point rebuilding the rear suspension without new bushes, especially as one of the bushes is utterly shot! biggrin

Bob.

In addition to RT, Steve Heath has a website with what you are looking for and ACT probably as well.
Should give you what the going rate is and decide where you want to buy.
