Tr4aJim Posted April 26, 2019 Report Share Posted April 26, 2019 Folks, before reassembling the front suspension, I’m going through all the bits to check for wear, etc. I found something interesting. According to the Stanpart book, each lower wishbone to trunnion pivot bolt uses the following hardware: 55, 54, 56, 57, 53 (wishbone) 57, 56, 54, 55 However on my car I found the following: 55, 54, 53 (wishbone) 54, 55 I have the same for both wishbones, on both sides of the car. Did a PO leave off the other parts, or were the number of components changed at some point? thanks Jim Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BlueTR3A-5EKT Posted April 26, 2019 Report Share Posted April 26, 2019 PO has left out the dust shields and rubber ring seals. 56 & 57 Peter W Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tr4aJim Posted April 26, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2019 Ok, thanks! BTW- is the pivot bolt supposed to be lubricated? The shop manual doesn’t mention any. Jim Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stuart Posted April 26, 2019 Report Share Posted April 26, 2019 Copperslip when you put it back together otherwise they seize and youll have hells own job to get it out the next time the bushes wear out. Stuart. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

silverfox4 Posted May 13, 2019 Report Share Posted May 13, 2019 allow me to latch on with another related question. Do you still use the shield/cup and sealing ring when using the SuperPro trunnion bush kit SPF 1844K? Thx Alf PS my 4A IRS Moss catalogue indicates these parts on p42 as 96 and 97 as opposed to 56 and 57 - any significance here Quote Link to post Share on other sites
