OD measurement of the Nytro a-arm bushings

[Bamboo]

Does anyone have the OD measurement of the Nytro A-arm bushings?

Thanks

That's probably the one thing. I didn't actually measure when I did my front end bushings last winter. Are you looking at turning a set of your own?

Just asking for a buddy, he found some material that is pretty close. I think he's going to try and make his own.

09+ a-arm bushing dimensions: 23mm OD, 18mm ID, 22mm long with a 3mm flange

I know when I installed mine that I had to press them in. It then made the bushings a pain to fit. Whats the ID on the stock a-arm?

I had some more measurements somewhere from when I made my tool to install them but haven't found them yet.

Here's a link to a picture of the tool I made on the lathe.

It made installing them a breeze. Still had to press in the lowered but it acted as a guide and they went in nice and straight.

The a-arm tube has a 23mm ID so the bushings are a press fit for the tube. I don't know why you would want to install bushings that needed to be glued in. I'd stick with a press fit.

I've been installing Pioneer Performance Nylatron bushing kits which have been holding up as good as the oilite versions and are easier to install: http://pioneerperformance.net/store/page3.html

What is the big difference between these tie types of materials? Why would you use one over the other? What are the goods and bads with both? Thanks for any input.

Which is better? These better than the oilites? That why you say that?

Not sure which is better. I prefer steel over plastic.
