Title: HF Turbo Suspension Bushes Post by: Chris5090 on 04 November, 2008, 08:02:25 PM Hi there,
I'm new on here but i need a bit of advice! I'm currently restoring my HF Turbo ??? ;D and have managed to find most of the parts i need, however i'm stuck for Front and Rear Suspension Bushes. Anyone got any idea where i can get some? Polyurethane or rubber, it doesn't really, i just cant seem to find any at the minute. When i started on this i knew i'd struggle for some things, maybe bodywork but not suspension :'( Turns out bodywork wasn't too difficult for me, but if anyone wants new front wings or rear suspension crossmember forget Fiat, i bought the last ones from Italy, I also got a new Passenger Rear Wing but i'm realy stuck on this suspension Any help would be greatly appreciated Regards - Chris Title: Re: HF Turbo Suspension Bushes Post by: SteveGales on 04 November, 2008, 09:05:16 PM Hi Chris
Welome! I presume you've tried the usual specialists such as Walkers, Tanc Barrett, AutoIntegrale , John Whalley etc ? I re-bushed the rear anti-roll bar on my Evo quite recently and had no problem getting them (standard bushes), they are the same on the 2WD Delta's. I personally prefer standard rubber bushes , having fitted uprated bushes in the past to other cars,they transmitted noticeably more road noise , although I think some manufacturer's now claim to have cured this. Let us know how you get on and good luck with the rebuild Steve Title: Re: HF Turbo Suspension Bushes Post by: rogerelias on 05 November, 2008, 12:41:27 PM which bushes do you need, i may have some top strut mounts that go on top of the shox and bolt up though bodywork.

I also need the Front wishbone rear bushes and all the anti roll bar bushes (i hadn't realised the Evo ones where the same).
I haven't tried any of the specialists yet, they all seem to just advertise 4wd & Integrale so i didn't think they'd be interested, but i hope they can help, i'll give them a try! By the way i have managed to get hold of 2 x Passenger side rear wings and 2 x Rear Suspension Cross Members, i need one of each but if anyone is stuck drop me a line. Thanks - Chris |
