done most of them on my 2wd cossie but dont no where these ones go



theyve got sr 8-a stamped on them

many thanks in advance

 

 

not 100% sure but could be rear beam bushes

 

Are they not part of the rear beam mounting bushes.
They are two piece iirc.

These sit directly above the other beam bushes otherwise your beam rubs on the chassis.

 

As above,deffo rear beam bushes

But,I think they go between the plate that you bolt up to chassis and beam.

If you look at the shaped/cut out shape on the bush pictured above it matches the raised part of the plate that bolts upto beam

Heres mine:

 

Yeh thats how i fitted mine.

 

oh shit

 

?????

 

please tell me that its just 2 17mm and 1 19mm bolts i need to undo

 

Yes it is.

Have you just put the larger bush in on its own?

 

ye, took it for a drive and it was shuddering at 80

 

The long 19mm bolt won't pull the beam tight without the small bush in place.

how odd, deflex told me to fit it the other way !!!

cos kev,
I notice you have only 8,8 grade bolts for your rear arms these should be 10,9 !!

 

i though they where off the bump stops on the cones that the springs sit around that is where mine went. when i got the full back end kit

 

Mine are fitted up the same as Coskev3 I figured that the extra bush acts a bit like the old alloy supports you could buy to try and calm down the beams antics of bouncing all over the place under hard acceleration...so I fitted them in the same way.

 

Are you running the car with the bushes fitted like that?????

Hope you didn't leave the spring bushes in the trailing arms like on the pic!!!!!!!!!

Positive the way mine are fitted is right

Mainly cause of the shaped bit cut out where the plate sits

 

Does anyone know how these should be fitted as Deflex told me that the extra bush sits on the top of the beam mounted bush not below !!

 

Pretty sure mine are right

The bush is shaped the same as the plate that bolts the beam up,so looks obvious to me

Also there are raised round bumps on the top of the main beam bush,which IMO go up against the chassis

Look how the original bushes are fitted,the biggest part of the bush is at the bottom of the beam,so thats how the Deflex ones should be IMO

 

I must admit i thought that about the raised bits when i first saw them, well off it comes again !!!

 

OH dear
