I have a leaking subframe bush on the Z, will it still pass an mot if I fit a aluminum subframe bush kit ,the type that fit either side of the bush, it also states that it will eliminate wheel hop.

Personally I wouldnt want to drive very far or very fast in a 300ZX with a knackered subframe bush.

If an MOT tester sees leaking fluid he will fail it.

Just fit collars its the cheapest and best way.no more worries about leaks and a more stable rear end.

He should only fail it if he can identify excessive movment, if theres a collar kit fitted then the most he can do is pass and advise.

Thank's for the reply's, she not on the road yet Pete, was having a look around yesterday when I discovered the leaking bush, Jimmer, I will fit a set of collers and see how it go's.

 

thanks Paul

Thanks Ossian,

whiteline do locking pinnaples as well in polyurathane think there are less harsh and cause less noise and vibration to the alloy locking collars .Think these should realy be fitted to save good bushes, it may save knackered ones for a bit but if there leaking they need changing .go poly if you do.
