Hi
I did a brief search but did not find what i was looking for . Does anyone know the part numbers for the bushes in the radius arms in an sj80 , I think they are .
It looks like all the chassis mount ones are the same . Are all the axles ones the same or are the rear different to the front ?

I can find the bushes for the jimny are these the same numbers ?

Cheers

Chris

sj80 come as a whole arm from suzuki,

the ones at the diff are the same front and rear and the ones at the chassis are the same front and rear. You will need to find part numbers from a jimny and work out if they are the same size because i beleive a certain model jimny they where available seperate to the arms.

don't get poly ones they put stress on everything and they suck, search the jimny forums i am pretty sure there was a discussion about what model had the seperate bushses available on the parts program.

well i would put poly in rear (superpro) because it stiffens the rear up, but not in the front it does not need to be any stiffer

Thanks . I have a set of arms I am using to coil another vehicle and the bushes in the rear at the diff attachment look like spring shackle bushes . The bushes elsewhere are more like all the other bushes I have seen in control arms , as in they have a sleve in the middle that is wider than the bush which would allow some roll of the arm . The bushes in the back would clamp up the arm tight , like a shackle bush .

Will see what I can find .

Cheers

We can do new or used genuine or aftermarket coily bushes.

they really stiffen up the suspension i lost travel from my front and rear when going all poly, i am keeping poly in the rear because it increases rolll stiffness but i am putting rubber back in the front to decrease the roll stiffness, one thing coilies don't need is any more stiffness in the front they lift wheels enough already, when your getting big travel the poly do put alot more stress on the diff brackets and bolts. well thats what i have found anyway.
