It wasn't easy :shock: :lol:

I emailed him, got no response, then PMed him through MT. Once communication established he said he could supply the FUCAs, either the sleeve (most likely to be the wear item) or the full bearing. So I immediately ordered a full set of four bearings. Haven't seen the invoice yet, but that was just a day or two ago.

The irony is that I am not totally convinced of the need. Yes there is minor, extremely minor, amount of movement in one. But the suspension shop doesn't know the detail of what is installed, just they are obviously non-standard, so ANY movement is a red light to them. I'll be happy though, regardless of whether these stay on the shelf as spares.

What have you done with your sways? Scrolling through the megathread I found some delrin bushes for the rear sway, very neat and simple, I could knock those up in nothing flat. I am wondering what I may be to do with my big RB front bar, as the poly bushes there are just about dead, I think I need to do a bit more research.

I never met a horsepower I didn't like (thanks bwob)

I've just got polly front and rear on the sways. They seem ok for now.
