vduben1 0 Posted November 7, 2006 got a full set of polys, but came to look at the wish bone ''ufo'' type bush and noticed it doesnt fit in the sub frame, it has a horseshoe type locator for the wish bone bush, the bushes say mk2 gti, which the others fit but this bush wont, have they sent me the wrong bush for that part, do i need mk 3 golf bushes for the subframe mounted wishbone mounts????? the mk2 golf bush fits in but the horse shoe part is pressing into the bush, any help would be great Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

coolrado 0 Posted November 8, 2006 in what way does it not fit? is the steel tube in the centre of the bush too wide for the horseshoe shaped recess or is the tube too long? also what model corrado do you have? not sure but i think the early g60's and 16v's use the same as the golf but vr's might be different.

.Rich. 0 Posted November 8, 2006 I used mk2 bushes on my vr6, you need to be 100% sure the wishbone is at the correct angle so it can slide into the horseshoe. Raise hub so wishbone is parallel with subframe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crispy 0 Posted December 12, 2006 Dude how did you get on with this? I found this when fitting mine, gave up as I thought damage to subframe meant horseshoe gap was compressed? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
