Failed my WOF :(
Hey all,
So my FTO just failed it's WOF inspection on the rear trailing arm bushses, and the PS Belt.
Does anybody have the part numbers for the belt, and/or the part numbers for the nolothane bushes?
I did a quick search, but couldn't find the part numbers.
But it was only a quick search, as I'm in a class atm :p
Cheers,
Braydon.
edit: if I'm not mistaken, I believe MR102063 is for the standard trailing arm bushes?

Re: Failed my WOF :(
Cheers Taz!
Now, lets hope I can get them locally, my car's now illegal to drive except for getting the parts.....
Damn WOFs, although I have been planning on doing the bushes anyway.
And the PS belt is slowly eating itself away, it's already down to three ribs...

Re: Failed my WOF :(
The offset is to push the arms back further, essentially elongating your wheel base. Which is supposed to improve handling.

Re: Failed my WOF :(
So, about $205 for new bushings and belt, $153 for the bushings and $52 for the belt.
Does that sound about right?
Just remember these are NZD...

Should just move to Tassie.
Still overseas, but they accept our currency and local exchange.

Re: Failed my WOF :(
The hole in it is offset, much like your front control arm bushes that push the lower control arm out further - similar concept.silverGPX wrote:What do u mean it pushes the arm back?

Re: Failed my WOF :(
In this instance we are moving the hub assembly towards the rear of the car, not in or out. I was just using the front bush as an example for offset bushes.
You can see how it works here:

Cheers for picture. I was having a hard time visualizing. Would this affect camber or toe?

Re: Failed my WOF :(
Oh wow. Needed to fix my rear trailing arm bush, might do it all together for better handling then.
Is the work labour intensive? (Thinking on costs to get it installed via a mechanic)
