Polyurethane subframe bushings for the MA70 Supra

[ronniek]

Hey man,thanks for your support.
Yes,these bushings are not the spacers between subframe and body.Your old rubber subframe bushings will need to be pressed out and replaced with my poly ones.Plus you wont be needing the stock spacers that sit between the body and subframe anymore.

WOOOO!!!!!!
Bump for pics, and update. I'm so in for these, Ronnie!

 

[bigaaron]

Will they squeek a year or two down the road? I would assume no, because those parts don't have much movement.

 

[ronniek]

I have made the molds and poly bushings have been poured today.Tommorrow I will remove bushings from molds and take some photos.

Front ones maybe... BIC has nylon spacers for the back available already.

polys are bettter than nylon!

 

[supra90turbo]

only as far as ride quality.

I'd be down for a full nylon bushing set. Damn Shaeff got the last one

Can't wait for pics Ronnie!

Ronnie sent me these pics to post for you guys.

His comments :

1. The steel inner sleeve is not shown,but will be included in the
subframe kit.

2.The bushing is divided into 2 halves,

The half with the flat top sits between body and subframe and the half
with the concave top is the bottom half.

The reason for the bottom half being concave is so people can re-use the the stock bottom subframe plates which the bolt head sits on.

The bottom plate is also concave so it will fit nicely on the poly bushing.


Cheers,
Roy

very nice!good thing i've been slacking and both my subframe's are still out.

 

[RyDeFly]

Wow, this is perfect timing for me as well. I'm definitely in on this one.
The prospect of removing the mushy soggy OE rubber is exciting! :biglaugh:

What steel are you going to use for the sleeves? I'd be willing to pay a wee bit more for 316L rather than plain ol' carbon steel.

I'm most likely in.

[adampecush]

if you are looking for longevity of your subframe, opt for carbon steel. Google "galvanic corrosion" or "galvanic series" to find out why.

 

[ronniek]

I am using 304 stainless steel sleeves,I also use this on my poly bushings set.
I will start selling these in 2 weeks time,Just trying to finish other projects that I have on at the moment.
If anyone is interested in purchasing the subframe bushings,Please email me at ronio73@hotmail.com
I have a slow internet connection and most of the time , i can't access supramania.
Thanks,
Ronnie

These are a good upgrade. When you tighten the chasis, the car will handle much better.
