Herald Rear radius arms

[Gentryman]

Hi, I wonder if anyone can help.

I purchased rear radius arm bushes from a company called ANG. The hole in them is 7/16 but the bolts on my car are 3/8. Were different sizes used on some models? I thought I would ask before I ring them on Thursday. Thanks

All Herald and Spitfire rear radius arm bushes are the same.

bigger hole in middle sounds like bottom bush in front shock perhaps?

[Gentryman]

That's what I thought but they were sold as radius arm bushes.

Are these rubber or poly? If poly, have they been supplied with a centre tube?

That is grasping at straws, but otherwise it sounds like a call to them is required..

[Pete Lewis]

agree with  Clive  sounds like centre   anti crush  tube is missing ???

I've dealt with ANG before (were they Anglian Triumph Services back in the day?) mostly on eBay so I've checked their items for sale; they have bushes for the rear suspension arms which they state are 3/8, and these are the standard rubber bushes which have a metal tube prefitted for both front and rear suspension. 

I think the guys are on the right track re the metal tube, so we'll have to wait and see if you have them or not.

Would expect 3/8 bolt is correct. As others have suggested, the larger hole is for a different bush. Spring eye perhaps?
