[TR] [6pack] Front Suspension Bushing replacement Kit

[DAVID MASSEY]

 FWIW, I installed poly bushing from TSI over 25 years ago and they are still in good shape.  It makes for a harsher ride over the rubber but the suspension geometry is more accurate and reliable.

Hi Everyone,
    Thanks so much to everyone for your great advice as to the replacement bushings for my TR6.  
    The company that provided my last set of bushings is Polybush in the UK. I re-bushed the whole car with their product and 100% of those bushings have failed including the rear swing arm bushings and the steering rack bushings in about 25,000 miles. I replaced the swing arm bushings last winter and I’m going to have to replace, at minimum, the steering rack bushings before this driving season.  I’m going to try to put off the rest of the front end bushings until this driving season is over.  I’ve ordered a set new polyurethane bushes from British Parts Northwest and expect to have them in a couple of days. 
    Best,
    Bob
    ’72 TR6
