Hi all,
This is not what I was expecting when I took the rear suspension out to inspect. Are these some sort of plastic bushings?
TIA

You might be able to correct the ears by simply welding the holes?

I did this with my 914 race car. Of course the ovals might have happened after I filed the console holes to get more negative camber. Which might have been, um, not quite legally approved.

Anyway, it is easy to weld the long side of the oval hole and drill/file to restore the round hole.
