Shocker bushes need some @ 12mm not the normal 10mm
« on: May 10, 2012, 11:21:29 am »
Need 2 or more shocker bushes for a CR 125 or 250 shocks top mount.   

From best i can tell with the measuring stick is they have an Eye diameter of 21.30mm ID ( not sure what that makes the bush ID but must be close to same ) being about 16.20mm wide -  with the original bush eye itself being about 18-19mm wide but assume i can cut it if too wide.

One day I was desperate for a shock bush to replace a flogged out on an old Works shock so I went behind my local Selbys Suspension shop on a Sunday morning and scooped 8 old 10 car shockies with good bushes out of their skip bin. I'm still using them!

Kerry, they are a piece of piss to make , do you have access to a lathe or know of someone local whom owes you a favour ;)    As you buy the "poly tuff "   .... shackle bush ( JX  30mm OD x 30W x 12.3 ID )  trim it up to size and turn up a internal bush.
