Bush Leak

[scarface]

hey, during the past week, my friends r33 developed a leak somewhere from the front on the left side, it was leaking some thick, translucent greasy stuff and i think its a dead bush, but i dont know what the part its leaking from is called, here's a pic, do any of u guys have an idea of what it is and how to fix it, can the dead bush, if that is the case, be replaced with pineapples

It looks like the front of the castor arm. (radius rod in other peoples language)

www.noltecsuspension.com $167.20 for the pair.

is that an easy fix, how much would labour be for that kinda thing, also its been leaking for like a week and still hasn't leaked all out, is it something that should be fixed asap

yes that is def your castor buses, pretty hard to do your self so best to take it to a work shop to do it,

mine were like that but i then decided to get them replaced with a polyurethane bush kit that superpro make, for a few $ more i went for adjustable castor bushes, which gives you adjustable castor, to help tune in more wheel alignment specs to help the car drive straight,

when your stock bush completely drains out, you might notice that the car will pull to one side, but its not something that will cause immediate dramas

workshops shouldnt charge a hell of a lot in terms of hours, its only a few bolts, then they have to press the old bush out and put the new one in (extremly hard to do your self) then it will need a wheel alignment

the part numbers for an r33 for the superpro bush kit

-1202k - direct standard spec replacment

-1202AK - adjustable caster(worth it )

thanks for that, can you tell me how much the adjustable caster bushes cost, might be a good time to upgrade
