i came across some aluminum rear subframe bushings and im gonna throw a couple questions out. first im assuming these will reduce or eliminate the nasty wheel hop i badly want to get rid of.. true? next how harsh of i ride can i expect after installing these? i dont want to hate driving on not perfect roads afterwards. and third being a machinist by trade these look damn easy to make i know i could whip them out on a lathe in no time- only thing is i need dimensions. if anyone has either the I.D dimensions of the subframe or the measurements of a set of these bushings could you hook me up? thank guys and girls

 

I have a drawing that I made of a name brand of spacer........ thanks to 91zxtt

would you like the autocad file that I created? Or do I need to copy it into word or powerpoint? I also have install instructions. what is your email address?

btw: 91zxtt might still have an xtra set he'll sell you cheap.

 

i just recieved them in the mail today...ill try to get them on this week and let ya know what i experience

 

yea canyon carver that would be great emuthus_138@yahoo.com and that would be nice to hear how the ride is b300 good luck with the install

 

i have a set on my car....

1. it still wheel hops. maybe because the brand of tire i have?

2. i feel no difference in my ride. still drives the same

3. i wouldnt know the dimentions.

 

kenz, you noticed no improvement from the wheel hop madness? with the ridiculous amount i experience at launch i would be happy to just ease it not neccessarily eliminate it. and what tires are you running?

 

worn shocks and suspension bushings contribute to bad wheel hop toooooo.

 

mmmmm....energy suspension bushings.....

new bushings set for the whole rear suspension, anyone else dream of this? or am I just weird?

 

I have every energy suspension part number that can be purchased for a datsun 510. Funny how many of the fit the Z's too.

back on topic now

 

subframe spacers will go on on saturday

i need to get some of those ES bushings in the back
the ones on my shocks look like rubberbands right now
i also need to put in my eibachs and kyb agxs, but my dad begs to differ

 

The wheel hop went away when I installed mine. I installed new shocks and springs at the same time, so that could've helped as well.
