I have so far got land rover engine mounting buhes for the engine, and polybushes for the suspension,but I really need some small metalastic bushes for mounting the diff etc.

Can anyone advise me on what oe stuffI might find a motorfactors supllying cheap?

Hi

Try looking for Triumph items as used by westfield for suspension. There should be a couple of sizes available in the Triumph range.

ok,went to the motorfactors today:

Triumph bushes are discontinued by quinton hazel, andyone got any good suppliers?

Hillman ones were 1.32, but they dont have an outer metal casing, just an inner tube and rubber. Also the bore is too small to be useful for diff mounting really

Any other suggestions?

What sort of size bushes. I have some triumphs, and all sorts of odds and ends. Give me the size and description, and I can have a look?

12mm bore, metal inner and outer, rubber inbetween. Enough to remove vibration from a diff mounting but not so much it wobbles around. Ive been told there is something suitable in the suspension of some peugeot model.
