Anyone know the correct way round the big washers go, as the polly bushes seem curved, and so do the washers, but do they match i.e. (( | )) or oppose )(|)(
Thanks Leigh.
Also if anyone has info on setting up correct geo for front would be handy so I can make sure it's right. will put it back as it came off, but be nice to check it's correct.

Leigh, Good to catch up over the weekend mate, pity you couldn't stay over.


As for the poly bushes, I just fitted mine in the same way the rubber ones came off.

Been like that for 8 years now. Drives fine.

My understanding is that they match the curve of the poly bushes, well they do on mine and have been there for years.

When I fitted poly bushes on the tie rods, I put mine like this () originally (as the removed rubber ones were, not sure if that was original or someone else's mistake!) and the steering/handling was crap; when installed like so )( it was spot on. Seemed counter-intuitive to me but that's my experience!
