Proflex elastomers?

[rcookscowen]

Hi, does anybody know where I can get some rear elastomers for a proflex 856? The usual eBay search hasn't given me any help!!?? Thanks

These guys do them. Not cheap mind and they're a sort of translucent colour rather than solid.

If you want solid colour people have had success with using Land / Range Rover suspension bushes. I'm not sure of the spec but they're the right colour if a little narrower. They do work apparently though, to a point.

Re:

Do you know which land rover bushes by any chance to aid my search? Rear diff mounts?

I have a 753 and used 3 of the rubber portion of a 2 inch test plug like this

They were a lot cheaper than the elastomer kit from suspensionfork parts online, though they probably don't work as well. I did buy an elastomer kit for a Quadra fork and it works well.

I'm not sure on the exact spec of the LR bushes but I know someone who is. I will ask them.

hmm the LR bushes came and are way too small think i might investigate further, or try the test plug route....
