Hi guys,
It looks like the rear arm bushes are not in good condition anymore and the car has a play from the rear axle. Are you using aftermarket bushes for the rear arms and the front wishbones ? If yes, which ones are you using ? Any drawbacks ? Cheers |

RTAB i use OEM bmw ones but with Turner limiter kits. Keeps the stress on the chassis standard.
some use the powerflex poly bushes which suti the track but give a little harsher ride. My only concern is that poly bushes transmit more and more force to the subframe and chassis mounts and they are prone to failure. |

Using solid bearing RTAB bush from Simpson which I think are the Turner ones and using Ground Control solid fronts.
I used the solid rears when it was a road car and they were fine, new bearing races required every 15k-20k miles, have driven to spa and back with the solid fronts and they were fine as well though the car was a bit harsher then and I don't know how much of that was down to the bushes, can't comment on how well they would last though. Ground control so a more road biased version of the fronts too. Last edited by _Nathan_; 14-09-2009 at 10:17 AM. |
