I think you can buy polyutherene rods and make your own bushes but i dont know where to get them from.





How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

I've been looking a little bit, not found any so far?
Bit annoyed as I didn't want to shell out on something I can knock out on the lathe (or cnc lathe..) in about an hour.

Rally Design sell most sizes.

I've heard most kit companies source theirs from Wisbech Engineering.

I'm not

Where I live, if I used poly bushes I'd have no teeth left and probasbly need spinal surgery!
