Selling these on GB in the Garage you can bump the thread for the code will be $170 after the GB is over

The real problem with these is the factory made these as a tube they welded a plate with the threaded ends on. The welds will rust over time and allow water in the tube. This leads to rust where you really don't want it. My stainless ones will never rust.

How much for just the bushings? You are right about rust and the shafts. About half of the ones I have torn down are so rusted they are not usable.

Have you considered adding a 14mm Schnoor washer to the ends? The original shafts have serrations to lock the shaft from rotating.

These have been installed and tested in Matt's car. Rotation is not transmitted through the rod. The graphite bushings actually are self lubricating unlike the rubber ones that will bind. you will see this in the installation. we are not currently selling the bushings separately.
A star washer could easily be added but not required.

If Bruce wants just the bushings, I'll take the stainless shafts because my bushings are brand new...

We are using the graphite bushings specifically because they are easier to install. We have a limited quantity and I'm sure we can get some to Bruce later, but you may want these. Just my .02.

I will take a set. Haven't checked the condition of my existing shafts yet but it sounds like these are a good idea.
