Bentley GT anti roll bar bushes

The anti roll bar bushes on my GT have a small crack and will need to be replaced soon. I was told one cannot purchase just the bushes but the complete anti roll bar which is a waste of a perfectly good part.

Does anyone the diameter of the front anti roll bar and if powerflex or similar brands will fit?

Thanks!

Hi.

Firstly, I would speak to a good independent Bentley mechanic.
I say that due to experience with Jaguar wishbone bushes. Jag' say buy the whole wishbone, those in the know simply source bushes and replace them saving over £300 a time.

Hi Les


The indep is good but just not able to find any match for the for ARB bush.

Do you have any good sources for bushes? Trying to find out if A8 or Phaeton ones will fit or not.


Thanks

By the time you source, remove and re-press new bushings, it is probably cheaper to replace the entire unit.

Probably true but it would be nice to have an option if I could find suitable bushes.
