Powerflex front bush issue?

by LE16 » Thu Mar 01, 2012 7:32 pm

Hi,

Was able to fit the lower (rear) no problem but the front wishbone bush is hard to get into the subframe (with powerflex) to the point where I cannot align the bolt hole. I measured the front bush at 65ml and the OEM as 60. Unless I am doing something wrong here? Just wanted to know if anyone else had this problem. Have checked they are the correct bushes and Powerflex think that the wishbone may be larger. But if that was the case then it's likely I would see the original as being 65 and they are not. So wondering if anyone else noticed this and what they did to resolve it?

Cheers

Also,

Has anyone got an original GM wishbone that is worn or minus the front bush? PF want me to measure the ID as they think the Trupart may be a deviation.

Cheers.
