I have a set of 914Rubber compliant rubber bushings (or what ever they are) that I got in the group buy, but If I am to have potential issues down the road, I am interested in your rubber bushings from Restoration Design EU Bruce. I am definitely in for a turn key solution too, i.e. I bring you the rebuilt/re-plated bushingless arms and shaft I got from you a while back, and you press in the rubber bushings ready for the arms to be bolted on...

If you want the hard bushing I will install the softer ones in the arms I have. Saves me getting another sets of arms powder coated. |

@bdstone914 , sending the money via Venmo with my daughter's account. You should receive $110 tonight.
Thank you for organizing this (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) and sorry for the delay... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) |

What is the expected difference to 914 Rubber trailing arm bushings? I'd love to know more about the expected differences (dimensions, durometer, or bushing rates) either from street to performance or better yet to all other competitors. I'll need a set but haven't decided on source. You're corect Elephant is very expensive, and more recently I think @bbrock has run into some fittment issues with 914Rubber parts on OEM pivot shafts. I know I definately don't want to do solid stainless pivots and add more weight for no reason. Would love to see something that works with OEM shafts. Than expected difference is that fit and function like the original rubber bushings. They can adapt to the variation in diameter and lack of linearity of the two holes. The 914 Rubber bushings are not made of rubber. There is no compression like the rubber. I want to try both durometers with bith the SS 914 Rubber shafts and non straight original shafts. I expect the 85 durometer bushings will be easier to install as they wil have less tendendancy to scrunch up as the shaft enters from inside the trailing arm. I dont think the performace differen e beyween the street and performance bushing will be noticible. Bruce, news to me the 914Rubber ones are not made of rubber. You may be thinking of the old polygraohite ones. Ours are made of rubber |

You list the Daystar on the site and yours with not description. They squeak like the poly material. Check them out. |
