Oz,
You comin to MERIMBULA AND BRINGING SOME WITH YOU, I am in for a set or two!!
Dave M.

not this year, Dave. just a bit too much going on with house hunting and weddings etc etc

but i am hoping to have it setup within the next 6 months to be able to produce enough to keep the Bellett faithful in stock for their cars.

cheers

OK Oz, I know what that is like, keep us in the loop, no doubt you will!!

rubbers arrived today. thanks very much farmer

they are now in a Mold of clay and Max 30, being kept at a temp of 27 degrees with my modified Willow cooler and should be ready for removal tomorrow at 6pm.
then some cleaning, spray lub and re-pouring should have the 2nd half on its way.

i will post up some pics of the first finished prototype once they are out of the Molds.


cheers

for some time i have been saving snippets of posts of interest, re parts: not sure who posted this but there is a number here for the end rubbers. Can anybody confirm it and if still available ??

Re: Sway bar end rubbers ?
pedders make universeal ones in urethane/nolathane.
inner sedan ones are part# EPH18.
GT are different as they are a couple of mm thicker in the bar, but i can't remember the exact size or part# atm... but i think they are 21mm. i'll check when i'm near my GT again.
outer ends are all the same, part# EP3320/15.

Yes they are available and you can use them red in colour standard D Bush --it will need the top scollaped out of it to mimmick the original $25

Cheers

thanks,

each or pair ?

Pair

Cheers

can you paint them black?

i have all my bushes in my 68 sedan replaced before i bought it and they work a treat but i personally think the red looks bloody awful. hence why i have gone down the path of making my own black replica bushes.

cause i would like it to look as original as possible. but others may like showing off their RED bushes. not me!!

thanks flying and glenn

not keen on red either but if that all one can find then thats it i guess. I think paint would come off pretty quickly though with the flexing

should be able to find the equivalent parts in super pro/fulcrum bushings which are a dark blue colour if you are trying to keep it looking more origional, my preference is for blacl bushes on the car, but that may not always be an option.

I might have to talk to you about them thar red ones when you go black.

Match my springs they might



Cheers
Rob

they would indeed!! it will be the first of my cars to have the new replacement bushes fitted. Shore hardness is very close to original bushes i supplied the Mold suppliers :0

yeah!!

Inner bar rubbers in blue

http://media.superpro.com.au/SuperProCa ... 14.005.pdf ee the HK Holden area. Various hole types for different sway bar diameters available too,

alos they sell the material in rod form which might be usable on a lathe to make the rack mount rubbers.
