Hi all,
Can any one tell me what the BOLT ON BRACKET on the rear beam is for. I have purchased the 4 new rear trailing arm bushes + the two rear beam bushes, but cant find out what the "bolt on bracket bush" is for (or what its called.
I havnt taken the old rear beam & the wish bones off yet, as I am replacing them as well.

Cheers

Terry
 
Not familiar with these, any chance you could post us up a pic. It's not a differential mounting point is it?
 
Hi Wynne, still no idea what the bracket is for, ??????????. Had the Axle,& both trailing arms blasted and powder coated. New wheel bearings,trailing arms new bushes & bolts . complete new rebuild on the brakes, calipers, Discs, flexible brake pipes, the lot. polyurethane bushes used through out. Engine , gear box , diff , whispers.
Held up for a while, Ticker played up ...... calmed down now.

Will get the front end completely replaced soon.
Strange one........... stored the z over winter. took the cover off , removed the hard top .
lifted the soft top, @@@****$%" how do you recon on the the horrible green rear screen turning completely clear, and has stayed clear. Great.
Has this happened to any one else ????????.
