i was gonna polybush the lot later this year but not sure now might get someone to do it for me

[Pye Man]

Sounds like a plan

Don't forget to have the castor checked after

Don't forget to have the castor checked after

 

how do i check that

[bortaf]

If you measure from the middle of the of the rear hub to the middle of the front one the gap should be 101.5 inches

If it feels ok then i'd leave it but they usually starts to understeer once the bushes get played with.

polys are thicker so you need to wind the back nut back to keep the same settings if you follow me?

TBH i alter mine to give a sharper turn in and stronger self centering but i like that way

i put poly type bushes in my granny and they lasted 3 months

gonna buy some superflex ones this time. the ad says beware of cheaper immitations and sadly in my experiance they are right

tho i may just put new rubber ones in as they seem to last ok.
