Hi Guys,

Where do you buy polly bushes?

I do get it for the front if I go for s13/s14 setup but what about the back?

Cheers
Regi

Do a search on the forum, I know I have read many postings about all the possibilities for front and back bushings. Many are available on ebay as well as Amazon and regular auto parts stores.

There is a slight issue with Ebay and autostores. I live in UK, most of the sellers on Ebay.com don't send internationally (ebay.co.uk nothing in there) and autostores in here don't sell polly bushings for S12s :/

Local/Europe polly bushing makers don't do anything for S12 either.  So was wondering maybe there's a manufacturer who has a web page and you can order those rear bushings online with worldwide shipping.

Cheers anyway, will write to the Ebay.com sellers maybe they be willing to ship it internationally or just gonna end up doing custom urethane bushings.

Nobody sells poly bushings for the S12 - anything that fits is from a different car. Rear subframe and rear semi-trailing arm bushes from the Z31-generation 300ZX will fit, and are available from a variety of manufacturers.

Acadiana Sportscar Orphanage sells rear subframe and control arms bushings made specially for them by Prothane. I've had to make my own diff bushing.
As far as other S12 specific bushings go, a small company called Experimental Engineering is making a few. I got his delrin passenger side steering rack bushing. He's currently working on the driver side.
