Suspension bushes dimensions... ;)
Discussion
...OK, you can see where this is leading, but is anyone enough of an anorak as to have the dimensions of any/most of the rubber bushes used in the A-frame wedge suspension? I could take my car to bits, I suppose, but once it's apart, there'll be things to fix..

Hey Wedg1e what were you doing thinking about bush dimensions at midnight ?
I have two, 'cos I'm greedy. 
Actually, I had one, then I found one for spares, but when I assessed the damage I figure it's no worse than the first one, so I'm restoring the second first, if you see what I mean! Have a look at 'Mellor' in the huge index on lathes.co.uk and you'll get an idea... now I 'need' a miller as well...
As a practise run last night I whizzed off a 1.25" cotton-reel bush in Nylon-66; of course this is sod-all use in several ways (not least the fact that you can't compress it to get it through the eye!) but it was an exercise.
Now, where's me plastic suppliers catalogue... ;-)
Mmmmmmmmmm..... bush....mmmm... flange....mmmm...
