Tiger Cat e1 front suspension
belgian2b - 12/2/12 at 01:12 PM

Hello,

i am rebuilding the front suspension of the Cat E1with new poly bushes.

Polybushes are made for a M12 bolt.
On the sierra, front suspension was also fixed with M12.

But , bolts on the car were M10, and the hole in the suspension brackets are 10 mm.
So, are those hole factory made ?
It looks difficult to rebore with alloy panel on the car.

Would it be a problem if i make some new poly bushes inner tubes for M10 bolts?


Any advice is welcome,

Gerardo

Should be OK as long as the length is the same. You could make a sleeve to fit inside the original bush.
