got the full set of 4 rears (superPro was the brand - they're blue, and all the same size inner and outer) for $65 from *cough * cough* burson's, though i think the retail on them is a bit more and the guy on the phone thought i was a trade guy. if you want the part # i'll have a scavenge around (if you doing this yourself - use lots, i mean lots, of grease)

Cheers, L-BJ

I'm just going through the process of changing over all the front and rear bushes to Nolathane and I've bought the rear ones with the metal sleeve so that means removing the original sleeve. This has proven very difficult to do. If I did this again I'd buy the bush kit for the rear that is listed as reusing the original sleeve.

I've tried just about everything to remove the original sleeve from the trailing arms but they're well and truly stuck. I've tried hacksawing through in a few locations but it still doesn't crack the seal between the metals. Advice from an engineer is now to grind it all away to vitually nothing and it should finally break through. Anyone found the same problem? Better, simpler ideas?

It's a problem!

That's why the bushes that Jeff sells are so popular. You leave the old sleave intact and the new bush slides in easily.

You need a shop press to fit the steel sleeved ones. It’s the only way to do it....

Nolathane do have a bush that installs in the original shell......

I can supply the above Nolathane bush kit for $60 + P&H...
