[Marky]

Marky, you also need to know the spring width. I believe Bedfords came out with 2 sizes. 55mm spring width, eye diameter 28.5 mm and 80mm spring width, eye diameter 35mm width. Superpro do a urethane rear set. For the 55mm set it is about $109.00 from Supercheap.
Hope this is of help.

Part No.SPF 1337K (55mm spring width...28.5 eye diameter)
$75  for a set of 12 rubbers ..6 sleeves......nice!!!

[Marky]

well all is not as it seems...

got the rubber kit ....

6 sets of bushes 
4 x leaf spring eye bushes
2 x rear shackle

-leaf spring eye diameter is ok..

-but my bolts are bigger in diameter..so used my old sleeves..buffed em up n are ok.. refitted them w new rubbers

-but the top rear rubbers..(shackle ones) the ones that hold the spring to the chassis rail are the wrong ones..

in the pack supplied they .way too small...

will be on the hunt tomorrow for a suitable replacement....

hmmmmmm Beddy sagas......

Marky,

I had a similar problem with my Whiteline upper control arm bushes. They packed the wrong dia crush tubes, as you can check the specs on their web site. I rang them up and they sent new ones out. On one of the back pages on Fulcrum you can look for your bushes/tubes. Follow link.

well they are all wrong....this kit doesn't fit a CFL..maybe a CFS most prob..

Seeems to me CFLs had bigger everything...makes more sense w the extra weight n all

...my leaf spring eye diameter is 35mm...Spring width 55mm.........

huh?

[Marky]

well...sent back the pack of rubbers...they are only for CFS...

no one makes a suitable replacement...

the next size up 85mm wide..35 mm eye diameter are close..but not the right fit

so will get em turned down tomorrow arvo...after i get the new ones........

  aaaaaaarrrrggghh!!!
