Hi
Could anyone point me in the direction of a guide to change the front anti roll bar bushes on a late T25. I have trawled around and can't find a description.

Situation is the two bushes (one left, one right hand side) each loop bracket held in place with a single bolt vertically into the chassis. The bushes are split and looking very 'rough'.

Job looks very straightforward, however I thought it best to check in case I am missing a trick

Thanks in advance.

Yes pretty straight forward swap, 17mm nut and two bushes required each side, you can get them from brickwerks or vw heritage etc. Consider antirust treatment and adding weather protection when you have everything apart, good luck :D

Thanks Ant-t

Parts ordered, I had visions of undoing the bolt(s) and not being able to get it back into position without help from a jack or the worlds stongest man!

I will give it a go following your advice when the bushes arrive.

Thanks again

Paul

I found I needed a jack to assist in getting last bush on but not a huge amount of pressure needed. It was more a 'third hand' if anything.
