Hello all. Like to know what sort is best for VB SL/E rear end for the trailing arms, panhard rod and the rear stabiliser bar links.
It currently has some Nolathane that has cracked and coming apart. I'm unsure when they were put in, late 90s i believe.
I thought some rubber ones maybe? From Pedders etc. |

I thought some rubber ones maybe? From Pedders etc. Damo have used various types... for both road and track and in my opinion here is what i think... use urethane ( I prefer SuperPro or Whitelene, not Nolathane) for the small rear sway bar link bushes and the panhard rod ends also use urethane for the spring insulators.... and rubber for the bottom suspension arm... with the non-voided 'so called Brocky' bush in the front of the arms, voided factory bushes in the axle bracket but for the street, an argument rages about the top (short) suspension arm. I f you go for an adjustable in length after market arm, ALL will have urethane bushes BOTH ends of the arm. But I have heard of the top arms tearing the floor bracket off if the bushes are urethane ... I would go top arms with rubber bushes in a streeter my Commodore race car is VERY different and set up for circuit work.... hard but supple (and won't bore you with the details) My 2c |
