Please re-read the original question topic.


Please re-read my post .... the anti-roll bar and the diff torque rods use the same bush kit and the installation is the same The assembly sequence is better described in the diff section of the workshop Manual.

Do they only supply one cupped washer in the diff torque rods set then - perhaps that's why I only have one ???

No. The diff torque rods have one fixed cup washer welded to the rod and use three loose cup washers .. two with large flanged hole and one with a small plain hole.

Hi Leslie,
That's a polyurethane bush kit from Tony Thompson Racing.
Here's a link to the kit...

And this to the bushes without the cup washers....

I couldn't find a kit listed by the other Lotus parts suppliers, but they do sell the bushes and cup washers separately.
Regards,
