Freestyle rear suspension bushes

[Ross_B]

Hi Everyone

Has anyone got info on the correct bushes for the rear suspension tie rods?

These are the kit supplied (kit specific?) by the looks of it and I wanted to know which bushes are known to fit these as the ones on my buggy will need replacing and I wasn't sure if they were mini or something else and hopefully not custom for the kit as I would like to fit poly type all round as a fit and forget if I could.

Thanks for any help on this one

There a post here with some info https://www.muddybuggies.com/forum/index.php?threads/tie-rod-bushes.693/

But I used to make some with rose joints with LH/RH threads so you got infinite adjustment

great thanks I will check it out and get something made up.

Here's a list of parts, unfortunately the images were hosted on photofuckwitsbucket so they were all lost

Bolting tie rod rose joint to subframe

Hi All, Just looking at the photo of where Alan's tie rod rose joints bolt to the subframe. Is the part that's attached to the subframe available to buy or do you make it up yourself? Hugh

Found these if you want to make your own

That's great and so helpful I think I will have a go and make up a set and do away with the bushes.

Is that a normal mini track rod end?

Yes the track rods were standard Mini, they are 1/2" AF RH thread, the other bits, inserts, rosejoints & 1/2 nuts were all bought from McGill auto sport the bolts came from a local fasteners supplier.

Perfect thanks

I was going to ask the best place to get the rose joint from but I will check McGill out and see what they have got.
