Panhard Rod Bushes

Post by CaptainQwerty » Wed May 20, 2015 4:14 pm

Hello,

I hope this is in the correct section; I was hoping to put tougher / uprated bushes in my panhard rod - does anyone know of any for the 480 or another car that fit?

If not I may just have to buy new standard ones.

thank you,

Antony.

Andrew said he was going to let you have first test. I have a LHS Auto wisbone here for testing so has both types of bush

Cool, so can you send me a pair for my auto then please?

Do you still have my address?

I have one wishbone with bushes fitted. They are easy to fit and no need to a press to either remove teh old or install the new ones. A vice or even G-clamp will do what is needed
