Re: ykc rear bushes
Don't assume anything! I once said exactly that Steve only to find out that the car in question, a Julietta too, used TR6 bushes! Yes! TR6! So Unfortunately Paul it may be a bit of guesswork/ careful measuring. As far as Poly bushes go you can buy blank stock and get them machined to fit, although if you have the Dedion rear tube you may want to keep as much lateral movement as possible as its not the best designed bit of kit when cornering as the shocks are pretty much locked upright and have virtually no lateral movement.

If you have dimensions or are happy to send Superflex a sample, I am sure they would be able to replicate your needs, possibly in a harder or softer Polyurethane to suit exact requirements.
Superflex have yet to let me down on multiple different vehicles, Gordon and Christine certainly know their stuff.
There are stockists around the country but a visit to Wookey, their central store, has the benefit of a trip through the Somerset countryside, a look at Wookey hole, and a drive through Cheddar Gorge etc. Even a visit to Wells, Glastonbury or even Clarks Shopping Village is possible if that’s what floats your boat.
Sadly Superflex do not offer mechanical services to change the bushes over, while you wait.MOC member since 05/97
