what type of bush is this?
There was some play in the rear lower wishbone bush on the xtreme.
I eneded up having to cut the bolt on both sides as it had rusted onto the inner sleeve.
This is what slid out - I hope cracked before I was hitting it with a hammer to explain the play, else I don't know how it was giving any
movement.
Any way, in case I don't get a reply from Mark at Quantum, anyone know what type of bush this is ?

thanks

Have you (or anyone else) got a build manual?
Might say in there what bush to use during the build.

unlucky for me, I have already tried that 
the manual just lists Quantum own part numbers.

Shame - I thought it might define the bush for you.
My other technique is to call on a local friendly motor factor and ask - he can usually identify the part or suggest an alternative part. Probably
worth taking your wishbone in as well so you can check the ID of the tube the bush has to go in.

Dont recognise it. Looks from that like the outer is in 3 sections, which would be strange. Do you have another view/angle?

Looks like 2 top hats with a spacer bush.
Phoned the local ramblers club today, but the bloke who answered just
went on and on.
