Hi guys,

Looking to replace my trailing arm bushes in the next couple of days and quickly trying to find a good alternative to the powerflex versions at £100 odd quid, just replaced the main beam bushes with the powerflex so don't mind forking out to have it all matching. (wish i had changed them then!) Would also appreciate any comments you guys may have.
Seem to remember a while back that there was adjustable versions for camber, after a brief search I found some front adjustable bushes so it may have been these??


My other question was to try to source some information on exhaust manifolds, my current one has started to blow, it's an m52 engine ( in an e30) it was on the engine bought as a conversion so I don't know what it was. I may try to repair the manifold once it's off, but I wondered if there were any improvements that could be made with an e30 specific for an m52 conversion.

Thanks again!

Jack

Better alternative to Powerflex is OE BMW. Same applies to trailing arm bushes, which BMW can supply in an offset form to correct small errors in camber and/or toe.
