Comparison Roelfs and Orginal Bushing

Post by Yale »

I took some -fuzzy- photos of the Roelfs suspension bushings I got next to the one original one we did find in stock. They are the same size but not exactly the same. The original one has thicker steel and the material inside the bushing is of some sort of waxy rubber like stuff, while the Roelfs one is rubber like rubber stuff. Tom, if he has the time, will post the photo for all of our amusement and explication.

I also sent this photo to Roelfs by the way to ask for their point of view as I assume (don't say it), it would have been just as easy to make the metal thickness' exactly the same. However they are on vacation, (ah you Europeans, you close down a whole business because everybody goes on vacation at once).

I'll let you know how the Roelfs ones work after installation.
