Powerflex Bushes.... Problem

[Dave_R]

glas someone did I would have bought some MK3 ones

So the ones from Strictly aren't correct for the MK2 Ibiza then??

There are the right ones, well one side lol. I have had an email back and they are very hopefully.

Gonna send me out a new lower arm with bushes and I gotta send the faulty one back. Either it's the wrong bush in it or the front mount housing of the lower arm is bigger than it should be. Find out when I remove it and compare, I would copy and paste the email but I'm in work at the mo.

Yeah have dealt with the Strictly boys before top lads, which is why I was suprised something went wrong!

Do let us know as I was going to get a set of these when I did my suspension!

Cheers

Well I had the new lower arm and fitted it saturday, got the tracking sorted asap and now the handling is better than ever! Problem was that the bush for some reason was loose inside the housing and just fell out when I removed the wishbone.

On the new one the bush was tight in the hosuing, so tight that I couldn't even turn it... checked the part numbers and they were the same.

i have the same problem in standard form lift off it pulls to the left floor it and its straight again had the caster and camber and ride height checked and alls well, the only thing we could put it down to is tyres but it didnt do it with the same tyres on before, the lads at the garage checked the alingmnet and everything is in line, is the just a qurk of the ibizas

I wouldn't have thought so, I had mine for 4 years and it never did it till i fitted the powerflex bush.... it sounds the same as mine and that would be movement in the bush, eg worn bush.
