Amateur mistake and not marked where I got these bits from! Been so long that I can't figure out one of the pieces.

 

Fitted driftworks polybushes, hence the large 3mm metal washer (which I assume goes on the bottom side of the bush).

 

From the diagrams I have and memory, I know where the member stay goes, so from the bottom I have the nut > member stay > washer > bush/subframe.

 

My question is, what the hell is this other thing I've refurbished? I'm sure I took it off here..

 

I've tried fiddling but can't figure out where it's used. It doesn't fit nicely between the member stay and the washer/bush, but has circlular mark the perfect size of the nut, as if it goes nut > this thing > member stay > washer > bush, and it fits in nicely to the member stay hole...but... the mark of the nut is on the other side, meaning it'd be a terrible fit

 

Any input appreciated!

 

 

 

 

 

The other option is that this is correct, and the faint circular markings on the member stay are coincidental?

 

P.s. 3 out of 4 of the bolts connecting the member stay to the car sheared. I wasn't going to go through with drilling them out yet as I need to get the car lowered and movable asap. Is this a safety concern, or are these purely to support large washers/incorrect design?

 

Cheers

 

the longer bracket with 2 bolts go at the front of the sub fame and bolt to the chassis its self .. they are needed as there part of the Torq support of the frame

the other 2 round ones go to the back mounts

 

its important you get the front mounts sorted and refitted

Ah that makes sense.. cheers.

 

I feared as much. I'll get on it.

 

Any chance of routing a new bolt through the top by taking off the interior trim/carpet etc?

no chance m8 there captive nuts in the support part of the cill

Damn. The one I did get out, tried to put in the new bolts I have (same fitting) and they are very unhappy trying to go in.

 

The other ones are drilling out okay actually. Worst case I'll drill the thread and try making a new thread.

 

One alternative would be to cut a small hole in the arch to feed a nut or bolt in, but I can only seeing that making the situation worse.

 

Cheers mark, will hopefully get it sorted haha
