[fob12]

Hi iam trying to fit a set of Stabiliser droplink bushes on my 97 micra i just took my old ones off and thay dont look the same. I dont know if there are two types or does this one fit but just replaces the original part. I have two links below so you can take a look also if any has fitted these new type would you have a diagram or instructions. Thanks

i would just fit a universal kit from your local carparts personally (and trim the spacer tube to the same length as the original one if you want to)

Ah is that what you do frank do you cut the tube in the middle down to the size as the original one that was fitted on the car. This one has a tube fitted over the bolt no body told me this in the the motor factors i think mine is universal anyway. Do you have a link so i can see a universal one thanks

the bushes in first link looks too far apart. the 2nd link looks correct

or just clamp em up with threaded bar n nuts like on mine, does the same job

that 1st link is a universal one by the looks of it mate, and i would leave the longer tube personally (the shorter it is the more strain/angle swing on the link as the suspension moves up and down)

Thats great frank so theres no need to cut it i suppose there would of been instructions with the kit to tell me to cut it. Great thanks frank and to everyone else I thought i had the wrong ones the car is out side on the jack i will have to back to it
