nick the greek Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 AFAIK, mine has standard bushes. Will be shagged! I've also got some knocking when going over bumps, so I know they are well worn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger440 Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 Just fitted some poly bushes to the drag link on the front of my triumph 2000. They are "special" ones designed to increase castor. These were the first ones so we fitted to see the difference. Left, 1.4, new poly, 2.6 Right, 1.5, new poly, 2.9 The larger increase on the right can be put down to the fact that the right hand bush was "knackered". I would guess an increase of 1 degree over stock, when comparing new with new would be about right. What was best was the difference that extra degree made. So much more positive now.

Roger440 Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 Better self centering primarily. Just felt more like a modern car, not like an old triumph, ie more positive in a straight line. Not sure what the effect would be with the standard boat anchor of an engine. More pronounced i guess as its heavier. Mines got a Rover V8 in it, 110lbs lighter im told. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
