Noltec urethane suspension bushes .... - Brindabella Motor Sport Club

Anyone on here had any experience with them ? Good? Bad? Indifferent?

Pricing on them seems pretty good, especially for a complete set of front lower wishbone bushes for a 140 Volvo (about $90 for the kit of 4 compared to about $240 for the equivalent SuperPro kit).

That's even cheaper than the OEM rubber ones !

Dave there stuff is spot on, Greg and the boys have been looking after us for the last few years.
Call Mick Ryan on 0429487775 ( Navs for me and is one of there reps) and tell him Shab sent you.

Cheers,
Luke Anderson.

Thank you Dave!

You can probably have Hagar's arms with the newish rubber bushes back if I can get some urethane ones for <$100...

Oh, and I've never had a problem with Noltec stuff.

Those prices are according to their website ..... they seem to have just about every bush for a 140. Some are cheaper than the SuperPro stuff, some are dearer.

Is Mick Ryan still on the case?

Interested in their solid top mounts...seem to be about $220 a pair according to an old website listing.

Anybody used these?

I don't think he is.... he's incredibly slack if he is - I've been waiting for a return phone call from back when this thread was active the first time 'round...

Back when I was looking a year or so ago, I seem to recall the Noltec strut tops being $440 for the pair - sure its not price per strut?

Yep, I was quoted about $440 for the pair.

Crazy Dave · 09-01-2007, 08:39 PM

Isn't the $440- a pair for the adjustables, so wouldn't the solids be cheaper.

Damo · 09-01-2007, 09:06 PM

I think the difference is between solid mounted or rubber mounted, and they are all adjustable? (but it was a while back...)

vkdude · 10-01-2007, 07:13 AM

I am getting solid for the commy, (forgotten the brand but I think its Noltec) non adjustable. The adjustable were more expensive and at my level I didnt think it was worth it plus the non adjustable looked a lot stronger - 1 solid plate as opposed to a sandwich type setup of plates. should be in any day now. I'm sure the quoted price was $320 if you walk in off the street and order them, but they support local motorsport so the final price will be worked out when they arrive (along with the Billy's)

Matt Dyne · 10-01-2007, 09:02 AM

I was aiming for the universal solid ones...nothing else...simple lump of metal with a spherical bearing in it.

Damo · 10-01-2007, 09:42 AM

My bad - I didnt realise that they did non-adjustable types.

I think the Heritage solid tops are around the $250 mark, so $220 isnt too far off the mark then?

Matt Dyne · 10-01-2007, 02:28 PM

According to Seemore, Heritage are $400 each???

Damo · 10-01-2007, 05:10 PM

Things couldnt have changed that much in 18 months?

Maybe I just misinterpreted the quotes? - I ended up going for Stew Wilkins adjustable solid ones, which I thought were the most expensive option ($660 for the two).
