front susp. poly bushes

Postby Jez » 18 Jun 2011 11:24

I have some super pro poly bushes that just don't seem to fit quite correctly, they seem a bit too tight. They are the upper bushes for the front suspension. when I have released the spring onto them it just doesn't seem quite right. Has anyone else had this experience? Or know what to do? They are the right part number.
Cheers

Are you sure they are not the tops for the rear? The front and rear springs have the same diameter but the fronts are longer than the rears and you could swap the upper spring seat bushings? I had seen the two can easily be confused and they are different.
