Default Sway bar/anti roll bar poly bush supplier in US?

I've been trying to find 20mm poly bushes for the front of my '90 C2 in the UK, but due to a fire at the Powerflex factory (one of the main suppliers here) There doesn't seem to be any available anywhere.

According to some distributors, they're could be a 6-9 month wait till they're back up and running... so my question is, can any of you Stateside Rennlisters recommend somewhere across the pond that I might be able to source some?


Cheers!

Design 911 list they have OEM, superpro poly and powerflex poly ARB bushes:

However, I guess they will be out of the powerflex bushes because of what you say but maybe try the superpro version?

FWIW I fitted powerflex to mine and although they immediately sharpened up the chassis, I would say that it was more because the old bushes were worn out. I reckon that fitting new OEM bushes would have had pretty much the same effect as the more expensive powerflex bushes.

I was looking at the Superpro's, but they dont seem to do the 20mm version for the front ARB.


Might take your advice and fit a set of OEM's...

If you go for the OEM ones, Type 911 have them up on their on-line shop for £5 each! Must be a software glitch....get them while you can

Guys,

We are the US distributor for Powerflex UK here in Virgina USA. We have 1 set of the 20mm swaybar bushings, PFFR57-209-20, for the 964 front or rear.

We also have a decent inventory of other 964/993/996 bushings as well.
