Morning All,

Can someone tell me what the outside diameter of the TCA to ARB bush is?
I may have a cunning plan!!

Thanks,

Tom

i have got those loose arb's in my living room that you gave me, want me to measure them tonight?

just got my flat mate to measure it and it is around 43mm, i can get exact dimensions later tonight if i cut the existing bush apart and use some calipers to measure the ID of the ARB itself

hope this helps

thanks tom.

are you gonna tell us what your super ssecret plan is then?

Well i keep destroying these bushes on my track car. I want to have the bush diameter in the arm machined to accept a spherical bearing like this one;



These are tough as hell (you can guess what vehicles they might be used on!!!) This will act as a test for my fully custom TCA design which will be adjustable for track (camber) and will have a spherical beraing at the TCA/ARB joint.

Gonna see if ZF make one with an outside diamter that will allow my plan to work. Best go and chat to the ZF guy

arnt they on the back of e39s?
