| Post subject: | Calmini replacement parts |
We all know that the Calmini hemi joint is pretty crap, mine is squeeking like a mutha bitch, But I'm stumped on where I'd be able to get a good quality replacement for it. Same go's for the bush's, I know I'd be able to get some sent from the states but the type they provide don't last as long as say Nolathane or Polyurethene bush's. But I will have to take them out to measure up so I can find the correct part numbers. Which means I won't be able to drive it for a few day's until parts arrive, And I really don't want to take it to pedders. Does any one know the part number's? That will save me a fair bit of mucking around. |

Yeah if anybody gets new calmini bushes some exact measurements would be good so people can source others available here.

I've been adding oil and grease to it, but only lasts about a week. It's quickly being called the squeeky squeek car. |

Try your local bearing supply shop. I think places like Pirtek and Enzed carry them too. Heim Joints are available in an amazing variety of versions, with grease fittings, nylon seals, even fully polished Stainless. There'd be a better upgrade available to stop the squeaking. |
