Hi.

I need for my project in Spain FRP bushes part numbers:

Front wishbone bush
Rear wishbone bush
Rear beam bush
Anti roll bar bush

Also need to know if engine and gearbox mounts and torque link are different of standard 1.7.

Thanks in advance
 
Front wishbone bush - 1055191
Rear wishbone bush- FRP Uprated - 1042691, changed to 1836215 - £6.01 + VAT (a lot cheaper than the original FRP one). "It's also VERY tight to press into the arm".
Rear beam bush - 1016439
Anti roll bar bush - 1145272

Also need to know if engine and gearbox mounts and torque link are different of standard 1.7. Same as standard 1.7.
 
Rear wishbone bush- FRP Uprated - 1042691, changed to 1836215 - £6.01 + VAT (a lot cheaper than the original FRP one). "It's also VERY tight to press into the arm".

Hold on before ordering this, as I need to check something with "eldoodarino". and will get back to you.
 
Just for your information YOG and co. The lower gearbox mount was different on a racing puma. It was a standard one rebushed with a harder bush in the small end. Maybe someone could give the old 909 number. This part has completely sold out and no more available.

Cheers

I have the following info, is this correct?
Engine Stabiliser Bar
Finis 9087832
Boreham P/No. MS98RR 6P082 AA
WERS P/No. A66SX 6P082 AA

The info I put regarding replacement for the Rear Wishbone Bush may not be correct, as PM'd to me by DOH. I have PM'd "eldoodarino" to clarify what he means and am waiting a reply.

This is what an original "FRP" bush looks like:

This is the original standard bush, as removed from my Thunder:

This is the "New" bush as shown by "eldoodarino":

Sounds about right.

OK, "eldoodarino"s post "....the part number for the larger (rear) bush has now been changed from 1042691 to 1836215 it's £6.01 + Vat (a lot cheaper than the FRP one).", I read as the FRP part number 1836215 has been changed to 1042691.
"eldoodarino" has replied to my PM saying that is incorrect, and that he used the standard bush (1042691), instead of the FRP (1836215) for the Thunder wishbone rebuild, as it was a lot cheaper.

So there you have it, you have a choice of either the standard wishbone rear bush (1042691) for a cheap price, the "FRP" (1836216) bush at a much higher price, or buy the Powerflex Road Use (PFF19-702) / Powerflex Motorsport Use (PFF19-702BLK), both also at much higher prices.
