gutted I missed this, from the website there are three sets of bushes listed I presume you need all three?

Dear Mark,

Sorry that you missed out. You don't need all of the bushes, you can pick and choose which ones you want to fit.

The subframe bushes EP1145 will offer a more stable subframe to chassis and therefore a better handling car.

If your Omega is made between 1999 and 2004, the polybushes (5403) won't work on your car.

The 5803 really helps to bring the rear camber back into spec.

Michael @ Pedders

Omega A

No tie-rod :-

all four-cylinder cars
early six-cylinder cars

Tie-rod

later six-cylinder cars
all 24V cars

Omega B

all cars have tie-rods

Cars with a tie-rod MUST NOT have anything other than the original ( flexy ) inner bush fitted, otherwise the suspension will bind up as it rises and falls.

Thanks Woody, that's great information. We agree with regard to the poly bush and tie-rod cars. They don't work together.

I'll update the website with the above information.

Regards

Morning all!

I looked up the specs for the Omega thought that the tie-rod was fitted after a certain chassis number. Did they all receive this from 1994?

I can see the use of two bolts and spring washers per bush on the rubber bushes, but why the two nuts, and only two lock washers on the poly ones Mike, do you know?
And is that a c spanner tap round with a hammer and punch adjustment?

Basically, the long bolt bottoms out in the centre bar and has a lock nut fitted. With the lock nut undone (and the bolt the other side slackened off) you can then use a spanner to turn the long bolt (clockwise) as it is bottomed out. Once in the right place, tighten up the lock nut and the short bolt the other side.

For clarity, the poly version is only recommended for use where there is NO toe control link. If you have a toe control link, then we recommend the use of the rubber version.

Roger (Michael is away today)

Omega does have a toe tie rod.

I assume that is all of them?

springs and shocks aside, omega b suspension is the same accross the range, within estate and saloon variants obviously. So yes all the same.

So Rubber ones only for us lot.


Can't speak for Carlton (omega a) though.

Sounds like it There isn't really enough "give" in the poly ones to absorb the deflection imparted by the toe control link.
