suspension rubber bushes

Post by samk »

morning all!

Probably going to attempt lowering my van this weekend. In preparation I had all the wheels off yesterday and treated all the visible bolts with a wire brush and a liberal spraying of plus gas. Whilst I was poking around I noticed that all or most of the small black runner bushes between various suspension components were perished or split. Does anyone know where to get these and how difficult they are to replace? I do have photos but dont have time to upload till tonight.

tis a 83 Aircooled.

thanks,
Sam
