Default Poly trailing arm bushes - anyone got a pic? and spare part reqd maybe.

as some will know im having major bother with getting standard trailing arm bushes. i think i have found a set that i got years ago for my other saff that never went on. I just want to confirm its the right bushes.

However i have 4 red poly parts but only 3 metal tubes/sleevs
so if i can confirm with a pic thats its the right bushes woud anyone be able to replace the missing tube/sleeve please?!

Would it matter using them when they are 5-6 years old but never used?

I got a complete set of New OE ford bushes from Automotive Unlimited, a couple of weeks ago.
They were even cheaper than the price Ford quoted, when they were available.



Cheers

Yes they are the ones selling them on Ebay. But I believe they have a few sets. I just contacted Duncan and he posted them the same day.

thanks mate i got the number through google and just spoke to him. he's going to see how many he has left before saying whether he'll sell me inners only. he prefers to sell as an inner/outer pair.

i might bite the bullet and buy them all from him
