Rod should have some with last shipment. I can get you some or go direct.

They're a really nice consistancy and the last few I've used have not been noisey.

Fulcrum Suspension sells them, p/no. SPF0942K with only a foot note asking that it is a 46mm shaft diameter. They are a Super-Pro brand.

I have a set that I bought for a Super Beetle but they are the wrong size,if you give me the dimensions I can check if these will fit.$25 plus postage.
I am on the Central Coast NSW.

Ian - will do mate

Wilderness - thank you that would have been a good option but the shaft measures 48.3mm.

cairog9 - as above the shaft measures 48.3mm but i have not pulled them out to determine the outer dia

For those in the know, does 48.3 sound right or do i have a non-standard spring plate. CIP1 indicates that the 1 7/8in were for later model beetles... it is hard for me to tell because the rubbers in their are that shagged

Measure the spring plate not the old bush.

The Superpro used to be too hard and were as noisey as .....

Hi, mine measure 45mm inside diameter.
