All is not lost...... Posted by DougM [Email] ![]() ![]() ![]() In Reply to: crap, they aren't even close!, DougM ![]() ![]() |
The powerflex guy sent me a page with universal bushings, which will need modified to make work, but nothing major. The most important dimension of the universal bushings was 21mm, which is the ID of the trailing arms front "bearing". Luck has it that they make a bushing with a 21mm OD. One thing that worried me was the stainless sleeve has a 13mm OD and 8mm ID, which can be drilled to accept my 11 mm bolt. That only leaves a wall thickness of 1mm. I may be able to reuse the original sleeves which have a 2mm wall thickness, which would require making the center bore of the bushing a tad bit larger.
The powerflex part number is PF99-108, and I have to wait a month to get them from the UK...ugh!
