This kit renews the bushings in the front eye of the rear springs on the 1958-1970 Austin Healey Sprite. It suits Sprite restorations, weekend drivers and vintage racers.

Springs carry the vehicle's weight and set its ride height, so the parts that locate them deserve attention as they age. Worn spring bushings let the axle shift, which can show up as a clunk when pulling away, a squeak over bumps or vague handling. Fresh bushings help keep the rear axle square under the vehicle, which matters most when it is loaded. Spring bushings are often replaced at the same time as shackles or springs, since the hardware is already apart. Leaf springs mount to the vehicle through bushings at the spring eye and the shackle, and those bushings let the spring flex as it carries load. The fitment information below is the place to confirm compatibility.

Parts that usually go with it

  • An alignment after installing new arms or bushings.
  • Matching parts at the other end. Upgrading one side or one link and leaving worn parts elsewhere limits the improvement.
  • Install tools. Pressed-in bushings may need a press or a shop to fit them.
