Generally make those column bushes out of a piece of round nolathane blank or similar,drill the centre hole first,grind the outer diameter down on a bench grinder till you get the right size,cut off the req,d length and fit,eeezy for maybee a dollar

Thanks for all the replies fellas,we will be resolving the problem with taller,wider tyres.I could go on and on about pro,s and cons of tyres/diffs/different wheels etc.but it comes down to cost effectivness verses bang for bucks.We should,nt complain too much and are only looking for minute gains after running it now for 5 years or so,punching well above what it should be doing finishing between 5th and around 12th outright at Morgan Park super sprints against all commers with 150k budgets and cars to match in a field of around 120 starters

I know where your coming from Ange,i wish that could be the case.The thing is travelling at 118mph in 4th when we need to grab 5th and we know a sunnys aero is like a block of flats,the time and rpm lost at that speed is incredible.Other than initial departure 1st and 2nd are a waste of space(fry up)and we only use 3rd and 4th where we compete.As we know and as one of the guys has said...a taller tyre is the only way till i put a hi lux diff into it,but with a taller tyre comes width and new flares,such is life.I did,nt think there was an appropriate diff available but i,ll always ask first.Cheers

Thanks everyone,looks like it will be taller tyres(trying to avoid)which will mean new guard flares with time being of the essence.Cheers
