Need advice on SW20 suspension bushings

Hey SW20TT,

I bought the complete Prothane polybush kit from the USA, I think it was around $150-180 delivered. 

I installed them myself by burning out the old bushes, the difference in ride quality and feel was fantastic.

Sure is!

However you need to measure your swaybar diameter and either get them to put different size bushes in the kit or order new ones

Thanks for the response guys.

yup you're right Eric. I'll measure the sway bar diameter before I buy the bushing kit.

Twosrus do a kit, it's what i have in may car. Worth the money, and theres about to be a group buy from them.

Phiz, do you know how much the kit is with the group buy?
 
 

I have the Prothane Sway bar bushings - still brand new which I'm happy to sell you.
 
I bought the whole kit not realising that my sway bars were larger than standard.
 
Located in WA and happy to post, just flick me a PM.

I believe the diameter of the pre '92 bars are 18 mm F/R, while the post '92 ones are 19 mm F/R.
You need the right ones, and 19 mm will be too large in your case.

 I'm in. Who is organising the group buy ?

Hi SW20TT,  yes I'm at Berowra. Have been slowly working on a 91 Turbo with my son, who just passed his test yesterday so the car is all mine for the next 3 years - yay! anyway recently I noticed steering wheel shake under brakes, sometimes a little less, not under brakes, and when I looked at rotors, one had a little runout. At the same time I had been wondering that steering seemed a little vague. Then 2 days ago, I noticed while my son was braking down a hill that the shake was quite violent, so I'm suspecting more than just disk runout. Also the wheel shakes a little on the m1 and since the tyres were recently replaced and balanced, I think the concrete sections of the M1 have grooves scored into them, to deal with puddling of rain water. So I am suspecting at least 1 control arm bushing to be root cause of all the above ?? Maybe other things contributing also.
 This morning with the car off the ground, we checked the ball joints, using a length of timber and there was no movement, which surprised me. I am still learning how to check all the suspension & steering components. 
 So this morning I rang a friend who runs a 4x wheel drive business and asked if his guys could get the car up on the hoist and test everything - and let me know what I need to replace. It's booked in for May1. If I need several bushings then I might do the lot and I will get back to you to see about saving some $$.
