Info needed: F15A Sway Bar Bushes

[sth65pac]

Thanks Jacques,

Well that is actually helpful. I can probably match it to a Part number now.
I pulled them off today so the quest continues. Once I get a bit of time I will go into a parts book and search.

BTW the bushes you sent me a few years back work a treat!


Cheers,

Ian

Photo shows the retainers. The bottom one is stamped with the hex shape of the slotted nut. I looked at a couple of used rods and both top and bottom have the hex stamping in them. On that basis, the top one may be a ring in.
I remember going to Pedder's Suspension in the nineties and they gave me a few bits so perhaps that plain one is from a newer vehicle. Just may prove that something else could do the job.

For some reason I repainted them a horribly wrong Bronze Olive Green many years ago but I am sure the hex stamped one is original. Thank God I have learnt a bit about WW2 paint colours on this forum since then!

The bushes are definitely original. You can see the overspray of the KG3 on them when the entire assembly was painted in WW2.

They measure 15/32" ID, 1-1/4" OD, and 3/4" high.
Hope this is of some help in finding what you need.

Cheers.
