Upper bushing on shocks
I broke(came apart at the track) the upper shock bushing(one that sits under the actuator) yesterday. Are these specific to the shock and where would I get a replacement?
Ever notice Mr. Haibeck does not own a ZR-1. If he did he would have no time to work on anybody elses, as he would spend all of his time fixing his own, like me....these two cars are killing me this year 1)Starter on the 90 2)Clutch/ throw out on the 92 3)Clutch hyd on the 90 4)Clutch Hyd on the 92 5)New Tires on the 92 6)Shock Bushing on the 92

Re: Upper bushing on shocks
Yeah, unfortunately, lots of repairs are expected on cars as old as ours are. Especially when you push them hard, like at the track. It just sucks that sometimes, everything seems to break all at once rather than gradually. Kind of hard on the wallet, lol!

Re: Upper bushing on shocks
