ok as per advice, I got the TYPE B ones (see the first post)
Went to a garage today to find that the Front of Rear bushes fitted at the moment are non adjustable ones i.e. the hole for the bolt is centered and not offset as shown in the pic which suggests its for adjusting/tracking.
so a wasted effort basically...
I am gonna return the bushes but has anyone else come across this?
Please advise |

guys, need your advice as I am lost. I returned the front of rear trailing arm bushes and ordered the ones from Milner Off-road.
They arrived today and to my horror, these ones are the offset ones too..
They say, they have sold hundreds of them and never had any complaints. On their website, it says that the offset bolt hole needs to be at 6 'o' clock position.
As mentioned previously, the factory bushes on the vehicle are eye 2 eye centred bushes whereas the replacement PU (both different kinds) are offset.
Please can someone shed light on this. I can understand if it was at 9 'o' clock or 3 'o' clock position it would affect the tracking/geometry (I Think..)
Thanks in advance |

Be careful with PU replacements as they all have something called a "Shore rating" and this determined their hardness, aftermarket PU bushes are generally uprated which is another word for much harder and this means your ride will be much harder and nowhere as compliant. |
