I'm using some XJ40 top wishbone bushes on my Prototype suspension.
The cheapest place I've found so far was £7 in the US, but they won't ship to the UK, over here I've not found them any cheaper than £13 !! and I need 32 of them !!
Where would you recommend over here, Part number CBC5523

Cheers for any Help..

Personally I would hunt someone down who lives in the states get the company to ship the bushes to them then post onto yourself. Failing that you could always make them yourself a 4 metre length of 500 grade poly will only cost you £15 and then a length of steel tube to make the bushes again around another £15 but of course lathes don't come cheap!

The original rubber versions are ones i want really, as I want some compliance in the suspension. As the car only weight 940kgs, and has less Anglia movement than in the XJ they will be fine. I'm trying to cut down on the normal Kit Car scuttle shake and rattles so rubber joints I must have....

Cheers anyway..
