just fitted some new rear beam bushes (flo-flex) to my rear beam, but my question is the bush comes in 2 sections, when the top section is fitted the bush is higher than the original ford bush?
or do i just fit the bottom section?

without

With I say, looks better not having a gap there if nothing else, but up to you.

Yup - goes on top... some have them fixed but your one is removable. So were mine

I did need a longer bolt to get it started... but otherwise no problem.

I found two types of bolts arrived when I bought new ones last time around Shaun. I used the longer ones to line it all up then unscrewed them and fitted the originals... sorry if confused you there... it was just to make lining up and initial pulling up easier.

Thanks for the compliment Tab... but I'm not bufty and she does get her fair share of dirt too

Best way mate lol

Ive been out and looked at my rear beam bushes tonight as I have the same ones on mine. Ive got the seperate part on the bottom.....I thought to my self bugger me, Ive fitted them wrong! So I dropped the beam to move them over but, looking at the seperate part it has a recess that locates on the pressing on the mounting plates perfectly and they just didnt seem right fitting them on the top tbh. Think your best bet, phone the suppliers....and then update this thread for us lol

Isn't that just the way they cut them out of the blank mould or something????

Mine feel great on the car btw - really pleased
