front lower axle bush

Post by KennyW »

Good evening to all,

I have a problem with the above bush;

On breaking sharply it moves out of its carrier in the suspension pivot, this bush has only been installed and is brand new febi make.

I originally thought I had fitted it wrongly but this has happened whether it is fitted with collar to the front or rear.

I am tempted to fitted a second collar to the other side but how will this affect the suspension set up, I don't know.

Thoughts please,

Kenny
