Does any one know who supplies the rubber three degree offset bushes in Sydney?
I saw an advert for them recently, but I can't find it.
I am sick of the plastic ones chopping out after 6 monthes.

Unfortunately I can provide no help but by plastic I assume you mean polyurethane?
I didn't think caster correction bushes were available in rubber, if so I too would be interested in a brand.

Don't pay $170 for them. I got a set cut at an engineering place at Hemmant in Brisbane for $59.00. Then, the 6 new bolts and nylocks cost me a whole $20 in total.
Cheap and easy. Used 6mm plate.
