    Default AE86 Trailing Arm Bush Sizes ???

    Hi,

    My Amaroo Clubman has AE86 drivetrain and I thought had AE86 Upper and Lower trailing arms.
    I just ordered some Nolethane bushes for Rear Upper and lower trailing arms and they appear to be wrong size, just want to confirm what size they should be as believe I may not actually have AE86 trailing arms after all.

    My arms have:
    6 bushes Diameter 26mm by 31mm long with crush tubes that take 12mm bolts and
    2 bushes Diameter 20mm by 31mm long with crush tubes that take 10mm bolts

    Nolethane Kit has:
    4 bushes/kit, 2 kits all same size
    The 2 piece bushes are designed to fit Hole Diameter 30mm by 40mm long (not including flange size)

    If it helps Trailing arms lengths are 340mm.

    So which is correct for AE86 ????
    Hope sizes make sense

    Thks for any help

    Chrs Pat

    from your measurements.... I think you may not have AE86 trailing arms.

    My first clue... AE86 has 2 different length arms... you only mention 340mm long.




    Above is an upper AE86 trailing arm with a TRD bushing fitted. The outer diameter of the metal part of the press in bushing is 1.65" or 42mm
    Information is POWER... learn the facts!!

    Thanks for the reply, mine are obviously not AE86 then, bushes are different and arms are all same length at 340mm.
