Subject: Re: De Dion / Transverse bars
The differential looks heavy, I'm not sure if I will drop it as there's no real reason to...
Barry and Wren told me that the trailing arm bushes which attached to the de Dion are not the same size as the front suspension upper bushes (they look the same). The options available are either to get a polybush and ream it out or machine down the de Dion pin to accept a standard DB5 upper wishbone bush (C3003).
The bushes which take the ends of the transverse torsion bars have not been identifiend yet but I wonder if they are the same as XKE upper control arm bushes (C8673)?
