Rear beam bushes for track

[Dean-VTR]

Hi my beam on my car is knackerd and when my other one goes on i was thinking of putting uprated bushes in as the ones with it are split.

Im not that clued up on uprated bushes so any advice/experience with differnt types would be good

PS ive got bilstein grp n rear shocks.

Ill google them and have a look. Cheers lads

[AlexBp]

or if your feeling fruity custom made cnc machined billet 7075 made by me





hadnt made the inserts at this point but i have stainless ones so you cant mushroom the alli over tightening them

need to fit them still made them like 3 years ago...

[Dean-VTR]

How much would you charge for a set.

[AlexBp]

erm not actually priced up making a set and they need custom fitting so id need your beam sending to me to be able to do them (why ive not fitted them myself yet)

iirc spoox are selling some solid jobbies now anyway

[benkelsall]

IM Axle on here sell solid rear bushes

http://imaxle.co.uk/

[AlexBp]

spoox ones

go solid aluminum ones....

i dont recomend anyones in particular as im not a seller or have comision on anything...but there are alot on market...

just google it..

Alloy just adds to the cost. Nylon materials work and are cheaper usually.
We sell the Baker BM solid mounts. Been using them for years myself and not had any problems.

[solvi]

cost?? they are preaty cheap....!

I used both alloy + nylon solid bushs in my ax rac car ALONG TIME AGO
W what seems to be missing on all the ones shown is a spacer washer to go above the axle which goes over the part of the bush that sticks out above the axle mounitng bracket
if you don,t have this then it ispossible for the axle to move upwards as there is no actual compression of the axle to the body .
you are relying on the bushs being a very tight fit and staying that way --
I have to say that for track use getting rid of the "rear steer " which is designed in to the std "void bushs " was no apprent advantage to handling ,but i can see why with old "soggy" bushs you might want to change them

I have the baker BM ones, I've yet to drive on them, but they were a bitch to put in

possibly because I'm useless!

this is why i said mine need custom fitting im going to remove the beam (actually refurbing with new pins) and turn each bush to suit each hole in the beam as a press fit

this should keep the beam in the right spot

[axsaxoman]

a spacer bush on the top side takes any doubt away ,its just the right way to do it
if you intention is to go solid mounting ,and also spreads the load into the chassis better

Wooow alex they look amazzing good effort!!

[AlexBp]

lol was years back i did them i can machine a lot better stuff now haha

[Dean-VTR]

Thanks for the help guys. Much appreciated much love.

The nylon ones shown from kam racing. Is that all i need or is there anything extra i will require.

Cheers
