Are Myrle bushes for wishbones any good?
If the price is right?

They are supposed to be very good but, they do a stronger bush for the M5 which will fit the front bush position on the MIG....

Mark - Thank you for info.

I think the cheap ones on ebay come from China?

Myrle come with a  guarantee

pays your money take your choice!

Found these ?

http://www.meyle.com/Home/application.asp?lan=us&images=off&ma=84&de=30713069069&mo=14201777488&ba=14201772640&
That MEYLE Part No. 614 035 0016 is common to almost the whole Omega B ranges front axle, left and right lower front bushes; it has an outer Ų 58,5 mm.

What I find strange is that the major road loading will only act laterally on the front bush but the cut outs in the rubber mean that is its weakest direction. Did someone at Opel screw up when the presses were set up and that error has been perpetuated ever since ?

I've been in contact with PowerFlex and they can only identify their items by specific car models. There isn't one that has been earmarked for the Omega B.

BTW the central retaining bolt is 14mm and the width between the chassis mounting ( = centre tube width) is 56mm. The Width of the outer casing on a standad bush is 48mm.
