aleximport25 Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 So I came to swap my front gearbox bush for another with a polybush already installed, then I noticed quiet a difference in the two. Any ideas why they are different ? Thanks alex Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 Hasnt it just had the paint taken off of it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
aleximport25 Posted March 10, 2016 Author Share Posted March 10, 2016 (edited) No the poly bushed one has wider locating tabs and looks like it's cast where the old one is welded together, it's a lot beefier around where it attaches to the gearbox mount , the layout is the same position wise. If you look round the mount the old one has a thinner piece around the edge where the poly one is one piece. Edited March 10, 2016 by aleximport25 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 If the poly one is cast its probably just down to cost reductions. It will be thicker if cast as it wont be as strong so needs beefing up. Does it still fit ordo you need the lower mount to suit? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
aleximport25 Posted March 11, 2016 Author Share Posted March 11, 2016 ahhh makes sense. cheers buddy yeah it fits fine its a bit of a squeeze but i presume thats due to the poly bush. it drives fine so thats all that matters Quote Link to post Share on other sites
