Anthony -- When I saw your first post I cringed a little since this has been a difficult issue here before (and TRs seem to use a lot of different sizes/PNs). My advice is that you need to know yourself the ODs of the bushings (OD = the part of the bushing that fits into the A-arm) and the lengths of the bushings so that you can double-check/confirm this with any potential supplier. Do a search on "348 bushing" (AND mode) and you should get a lot of relevant previous threads. Energy Suspensions has two sizes of Polyurethane A-arm bushings available: 30 mm OD X ? length that fit 308s (can someone please confirm the length of a stock 308 30 mm OD bushing?) and 34 mm OD x 56 mm length (although others have reported these can be "trimmed" by a Machine Shop to 34 mm OD x 49 mm length if needed). SuperformanceUK also lists some "harder" bushings for various models, but don't give any dimensions (or material info). Good luck (and please post the TR sizes/quantities if you measure them)... |

Someone out there must have some good info on TR suspension bushes that they can share with me. I am happy to buy from U.S.A as original factory bushes cost an arm and a leg. Any suggestions. |
