PACR Posted June 22, 2003 Share Posted June 22, 2003 The bushes in my std Bilstein dampers are looking somewhat sad. Lying underneath fiddling with the sump has revealed that the bush is not sitting centrally in the housing anymore and is pushed considerably to one side by the force on it. Lifting the front sharply shows movement in the bushes, possibly what's causing the noticable lift of the nose on hard acceleration... Powerflex don't quote a replacement bush - anyone else had this issue? I can find the dosh for 4 bushes (maybe 8) quicker than for 4 new dampers. I suppose I could get the bush housings machined to take a spherical bearing and a couple of circlips but I'd probably be better off with some decent rebuildable servicable dampers.
