    Powerflex ARB bushes for RS2

    Does anyone know where I can get a pair of these bushes from and what the part number is?

    Thanks

    Sal, give proven products a call http://www.proven-products.co.uk/, and ask for the larger bush, i think the part number is the same for both w/bone types, the forged ones use the larger ones though.

          hi all,
          just tied to order some powerflex wishbone bushes for an aby s2 - got around to establishing whether i required forged or pressed only to be told that there is a further variation in bush size, eg 25mm Vs 35mm type - can anyone verify and advise please.

          thanx.

            I think the 25mm and 35mm types are wether it is pressed or forged? I have a set at home so will measure them later. I have those for sale if you are interested also.

                  hi greg
                  yep would appreciate that.
                  mine are pressed all round, but when i tried to order from proven products they reckon pressed come in two sizes 35mm and 45mm (correction to previous post) as do the forged. I have been told to measure the diameter of the wishbone 'bit' on which the bush goes before i order.

                    yes we do indeed, just haven't put them on the site yet.

                    There are only two types. Big ones for aluminium arms and small ones for steel arms. I have no idea where the 'two sizes of each type' has come from!! big or small, aluminium or steel, forged or pressed, 8A0's or 893's which ever you say it, there are two types only.

                    Not two types of two types

                        Martyn's got them developing RS2 ARB bushes and it should be available any day now. Or so I hope, as I will be in the UK from Thursday and wouldn't mind picking them up then!

                          Im pretty sure the smaller ones are for the pressed wishbones.
