wishbone rear bush

[graemewelch]

Ive been looking at universal bushed that might fit the rear bush on wishbone. Ive come up with this one. I might have to make some washers and a stainles sleeve but it should work. What do you think. Ill put up pics and sizes once ive attacked the wishbone with my vernia.

This is the bush ive found pf99-205

[graemewelch]

Ive contacted powerflex about getting some of these made. Once ive heard back from them ill strart a groupbuy

how much?

fk me!

[graemewelch]

Theres not a chance on hell im willing to pay that.

[Harvey]

http://www.volvopartshop.com/suspension-bushes-159-c.asp this is each as well

[JamesT5]

Yeah £96 for a bush does seem expensive. For that price, I'd want a whole hedgerow! ;)

[graemewelch]

Bet there a pain to press in.

[graemewelch]

After further discussion with the technical team I have been informed that there are currently plans to produce the front wishbone rear bush



However, no specific timeframe has been decided on this as yet



We are hoping it will be by the end of the year



Please keep checking back on our website for updates



Alternatively we post weekly bulletins on our Facebook page about new products being released each week



I hope this helps



Kind Regards

I'd be interested in polybushes as both my front arm, rear bushes, on mine are on the way out. As long as they aren't some ridiculous price. I can aready buy them, not poly, but rubber, for a tenner. Unknown quality but there will be others no doubt.

this is a kit of 2 bushes to do both sides. up to now, these are the only people who have made a poly version.

[graemewelch]

Would there be anyway we could get the price down if we done a groupbuy

[partsforvolvos.com]

i have an alternative suggestion.

there is another company i have been keeping under my hat because nobody else has them, who make the complete rear bush as well and i just emailed them and they do have the rear bush in stock.
the price is VERY reasonable compared to the superflex kit, and they are a complete bush rather than the 'rings' kit.

they also do the front bush ready made complete, which i have just finished listing as a new part. - how do you fancy not having to burn out the center of the bush anymore to fit the front insert sleeve kit?

PFV907794 , this bush is £28 each. 4 only in stock at present, i only ordered 4 to inspect as a sample.

I will admit it now, these have been sitting on my new parts table for 3 months, but other more urgent things kept being thrown up to do first



i will order some of the rear bush as well for our next delivery.

i am very willing to do a group buy using these - the details will need to be worked out depending on what parts the 'majority' would want, minimum 10 people.



unfortunately there is not much movement to play with on the superflex kit

the warranty on these pfv bushes is 12 months.

for comaprison -

powerflex - limited lifetime warranty .
superflex - (the £96 ones) , are 3 years providing the kit contains stainless sleeves. if it is an application with steel sleeves, then 12 months.

[Harvey]

Looks like its worth a go with these one if powerflex don't do any yet.

Hi guys, sorry i forgot about this . we did not recieved the parts that were ordered, so i chased the supplier up but found out that they had to withdraw the parts due to a quality issue- they thought there might be bubbles in the poly causing the outer casing to be loose on some they examined. for this reason, i chose not to proceed with the product, until such time as they can reassure us on them.
