Only with inner-edge-worn rear tyres

Are the donut bushes secure?

Default rubbish rear polly bushes for a cosworth

hi there yes ive fitted the small ones aswell but im not sure if it fits between the chassy or fits under the big bush then the 3 bolt plate? any way ive tryed both ways it seem like it should fit under the big bush as it presses the big bush harder making it fit titer but it looks wrong but it done the trick so i am going to make 2 big round 12mm thick steel washers and weld them to the 3 hole plate then fit it should press the bush in harder to make them swell for a good tite fit
