Title: Shocky eye bush DESPERATION
Post by: Mick D on June 21, 2015, 12:31:40 pm

Hi, after some of these rubberised type "flexible bearings"

ID  OD  WIDTH
8 x 25 x 22
(http://i677.photobucket.com/albums/vv132/mc125mick/61615975_zpszumormg7.jpg~original)

If I could just find something with a 25 OD, I could make the rest fit.
Cheers.

Mick,
      Car part retailers I.e. Autopro etc sell packs of bushes for car shocks

This was an easy and cheap way to get 25mm OD bearings. KTM/WP use 25mm OD so these would work. You may need to use different press in reducer bushes if you need to get the ID to 8mm

Thanks Tezza and thanks for going to so much trouble too Leigh.
That All Balls info will come in very handy soon Leigh and would have saved a small fortune on a exact recent repair ::)
Very handy when the forum works like this.

I need four for my piggy back Corte Cosso's, they have Ohlins shafts etc and are an absolute superb working pair.

Thanks mate, home grown company feeding our automotive industry.
I went through their catulogue, none with a 25mm OD though.

Just found these in China but, who hoo, the wunder of the internet

Fifteen minutes to shorten and sleeve them, but probably wont make it here in time for Yass :-[
