   Hi,how bad is this on vibrations? is it worth it for the gains you get? Bearable on everyday roads (not daily) as personal as it can be? Thanks for the help.

   Not tried a totally solid one but I was running a powerflex one and that did give some vibration when sat still, I think a solid one might be a bit too much for a road car but its down to personal preference I guess.

   Has anyone the measurements for the smaller fork bush? It's only available as a complete part along with the fork from pug/cit but it just looks like a regular bushing to me.

   You get a fair bit of extra vibration. Get a hard rubber one if the car is used on the road..

   Still need these measurements? If so let me know I still have my old OEM bush.

   Ha no problem. Personally I would stick with the hard rubber. You want a little vibration dampening on a road car. The dash will vibrate enough
