F27 lower wishbone bushes

Managed to get hold of some stronger lower wishbones for my F27,after my little mishap when an original one snapped on the move!

but they came with no bushes unfortunately !!
does anybody know where I can get either polybushes or metalastic type bushes from? am only after 4.
metal sleeve is 38mm long , inside diameter is 27mm?
there seems to be many different sizes out there!! , none of which I can match up to mine!!
and yes I did a search!
regards,
Greg

Get some turned from Nylatron or Nylon if you can - it's a bit firmer than even the hard poly.

I am suprised someone that one of the powerflex can't supply what you need. It may be that you need to get bushes with larger centre holes and then fit tophats in to sixe down to your bolt size. I think they also do the tophats in various sizes.
Failing that why not modify the bones and go for rose joints. Less flex and easily adjustable. That's what I have!!
