    Avant Rear Damper Bushes

    Hi guys

    Need some advice or help...

    I am re-bushing the rear of my car at the moment and have bits of it all over the garage and patio and am just about to put an order in for some items....

    I know I want/need to replace the rear damper bushes top and bottom only after having spoken with Eric it seems they are not listed separately on KATE to the damper. Does anyone have a solution to this or an alternative to replacing the whole damper unit? I dont particularly want/need to change the whole damper if im honest as mine do not knock and seem strong enough still.

    Any solutions to the bush issue would be most appreciated though.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Chris

      Not sure if its any use to you but you can buy replacement bushing for Koni shocks. I might be able to dig out the part number for the lower ones as i had to replace mine a while back.

        If you could that would be excellent buddy as I would hope they might be the same size???

          I had a same problem on my RS2 however I have a KW coilovers. KW sells the separately so i ordered them from them. I wonder if they have same outside diameter as stock ones and you could also get them from them.

          They are 28 Euro a peace.

            Anyone know the outer diameter of the lower bush in the konis or KW's? I have the outer diameter of the OEM ones written down at home so will post up later.
