suspension bushes

[series70boy]

hi all

at the age of 28 my starlet is in need of some more loving!

many of the suspension bushes are...... knackered

i have been led to believe that ep80 and 90 bushes for the front wishbones, rear axle and rear torsion bar will fit!

is this true! the ones for the ep70 are now discontinued and im struggling to get them

i dont want to spend £305 on a complete set of powerflex ones to be fair.

thanks

powerflex ftw

the powerflex ones from the ep80/90 are rumoured to fit but i just dont know!

Its abit cheeky but as I understand turbo grant is working on Taggys boxy and has his gt sitting there perhaps message him and ask nicely if he could compare the 2 as he has both sitting to hand.

But I still have my ep70 and my ep82, I've got an anti lift kit to fit on mine to fit. I'm also going to Polly bush the engine mounts. The poor old 1e mounts are holding in the 4efte

There's 2 different size bushes for the front wishbones.

31 and 34mm

I think later cars had the 31mm and early gt's had the 34mm so you would need to check to see what your 70 has really. That or order both and sell the set you don't need?
