Reply to "A arm bushing quality?"

jfb05177Member

the vendor has not responded to my emails about dimensions, However he did gracously SOLD me another 8 that appears to all be by the same manufactorer. there overall length was within what I consider the desired range of 47mm -0.5/0.

However, even from those new 8, there were two differnt ODs for the press fit. I can see that the A arms ID fits may be differnt so is it the practice to machine the bushing's OD to provide a given press OR do you just use what ever force is needed to put them in with out considering if the metal is stretched beyound yield

As for axial offset providing caster improvement;
given the seperation of the upper/lower arms is about 8.4", the bushings axial offset between the two arms would need to be 0.15" for just 1 degree
(tan 1) X 8.4 =0.147
