Will idler arm bushing for 90 Omega fit 01?
« on: 15 January 2013, 15:53:14 »
I did some research and it looks like bushing is available for older Omega, but not for 01.
There is listing for 01 with the same part number as for older models.

1990 Omega in UK is the Vauxhall Carlton. I thought their arms were different  :-\

It could be the length of the arms that are different, IIRC the Senator arm was 10mm longer than the Carlton GSi arm to give the steering a lighter feel, I think the bushings would be the same.

I very carefully compared the two arms and they are the same.
Handily saved me a few quid!
