Im confuzzled, googling gives me pics or what appears to be the same thing.

I need to do the bushes on, what I beleive is the rear trailing arm, the one that mounts to the chassis with the big triangle plate is worn on one side.

I have superpro part numbers
SPF10323 rear radius arm to chassis mounting bush kit (this is the one that definatly needs doing, and is obviously the right one)

SPF0128 Rear upper trailing 'A' Arm bush kit (trailing arm)

is the the correct one for the other end of this bar? if not, where does this one go.

All the rest of the kit has been fitted by the prior owner, im not sure why he would have done one end of the rear arm, and not the other, its the fact of superpro using different names for the same part (if they are) thats confusing me.

not my pic, but this is the arm I am referring to...
 
trailing arm ,radius arm ,low rear link depends on choice ,A frame is upper ,ntc9027 is triangle bush (chassis to rear arm )ntc1772 is number for rear arm to axle ,you should do both sides at the same time
 
cheers, I thought so, but would have expected a manufacture to stick with the same term through their stuff, not swap about.
Will be doing both sides, hopefully this weekend, Ill see how much fighting the arm to axle bush is going to be to if they both get done sat or is one side gets done on Sunday... that and the clutch cyls...
 
May aswell buy a full kit and fit it as and when if you can't do it all at once, but as James has already said FIT THEM IN PAIRS
 
Full kit has already been fitted by the previous owner, these are the last ones (got receipts etc to prove it) Ive only had it 4 months so not got round to doing these, now they have gone Im forced to!!
The guy fitted the others then didn't use it for 6 months before selling, so they've only done about 2K (exept the ones sat on me kitchen table.)
so, how much fight can I expect to get them on then??
 
A complete cu*t to do the side that joins axel.
Good luck!!

If you don't have use of a press, I suggest you buy some butane& propane mix
 
bollox :mad:...
that is all...

no press, was hoping a few sockets/washer and threaded bar would do it.
right, off to get a blowtorch in the morning!
 
Maybe??

I would get them off and take then to the nearest garage and offer £10-£20 for them to press them out!
And if new ones need pressing in they can do that too??
Just a thought.
It will cost a few quid in gas anyway
