nolethane rear bushings.

Here's the deal,
At the start of the year when I was all cashed up after a fire, I bought what I thought to be a full set of noltec bushes for the back end of my 1200 sedan. (I do some work for the rural fire authority, and they pay well) However I was looking at the parts today,(Yeah I'm a slack ass and haven't fitted them yet) and it appears that I didn't get the bushes for between the front spring hangers and the "chassis". I took a look at the noltec website, and they don't list a part for it. What has everyone else used.

dont get the 4 ones for the front "hanger" keep them stock as it needs a little bit of plyability. This is one of the secrets of a race setup for a 1200. Use nolathane for all other bushes in the rear suspension

Converted, in the competition manual on here, im sure it says to use the stock rear leaf eye busing, delrin/nolathane front eye bushing and alloy busings in the chassis rails. Thats what im am currently doing with my sedan.

I measured up the bushings and found some in the back of the nolathane cataloge to fit the chassis mounts in my coupe. I wouldn't have thought that you would need movement there, but i don't have the experience that converted has about these things.

DATTOWHORE, thats why they use alloy there. As the leafs locate the diff in the car, you dont want it moving from side to side at all. I would only recommend this for a serious track car, definitely not for the road, wear will be too high.

I havent worked out the physics why this is the case however it works and works very very well.

i used the back rear hanger (x2 sets), and drilled out the centre to 13mm to suit the front rear hanger, outside dimensions are the same,
