Hi Jason

I will need to change the rear bushes at some point in the near future so could you please put me down for a pair.

Thanks

I'm interested in a spare pair to,

Can I ask what material spec they are made out of though ? EN24T ? and are they yellow passivated like the OG pins?

I'd be interested in anyone's tips about getting these out - maybe a marinade in WD40. I wouldn't think anyone has removed the ones on my car in the past.

Take the lockpin thing out, take the nuts and washers off the spindle, put a shallow socket or short bit of tube over the threaded end of the spindle, get a nut on the spindle end, tighten the nut slowly pulling the pin through the socket as much as you can, repeat with a longer socket/bit of tube until done ✅

They're not stainless, just high tensile, I work with stainless and must say I'm not really a fan either. It's alright for show, but I wouldn't generally use it for structural stuff.

Some grades of stainless will pick up or gall when continually run in a high carbon steel or iron guide.
 
Hi

Not till I've got them all ready........ I don't collect till the end of this week or Monday, I've then got to drop them at the platers for the yellow zinc coating.
