Default Front anti-roll bar mount bolts. Where?

Anybody know where I can get hold of a bolt for the front ARB mount? One of the two that holds the u-shaped bracket that locates the big bush? One of mine has a very rough head.


Also, before I spend a few hours thinking about it and probably doing it the wrong way, does anybody have a tip for pushing out the smaller TCA rubber bush?

Thanks all,


Charlie

It's a very common bolt so just go to any bolt place, and get a stainless steel one.
The smaller bush on the tca is easy to push out if put in vice, with a large socket one side that the bush can be pushed in to and a smaller one pushing the bush through when tightened in the vice, if still on car.

if you haven't got a vice, you can use some threaded rod to do the same thing

just make sure it's got enough strength in the thredsa as i've sptripped one before and it gave me a bit of a scare

alternativly, use a hacksaw blade to put a cut into the bush most of the way through, this will help ease it out if all else fails, use a big weldy thing yo burn it out

just wear breathing aparatus
