dani_r Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Hello! I have been reading through some threads regarding suspension bushes as I am getting a bit of wheel-hop from the rear left when I light up the rear wheels Basically once the wheels spin, the rear left vibrates like mad and sounds like the tyre is trying to come off the wheel! My friend will be looking at the rear arms etc at some point this week when the ramp becomes free, but I was wondering if it is possible to get stock replacement bushes for the rear? I've seen that you can buy the poly-bushes but don't fancy going down that route as the Isle of Man roads are crappy enough and the ride in the Supra is very hard sometimes, often a bit too hard! Any thoughts would be appreciated as ever! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miko_supra Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 If yours in an N/A then it will only have one diff bush as aposed to the two that you get with the TT. There is a hole for it as the subframes are the same. Maybe put one of them in as it wont affect your ride comfort and almost certainly dampen things out to prevent wheel hop.

miko_supra Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Do you happen to have a pic of this? On your N/A you will have a large bush fitted in the hole on the right here, but not one on the left (this subframe is upside down mind). These cost around £50 i think new and to fit/replace them properly the subframe needs to be removed. I can offer this service for you if you are interested.
