Neatrix Bushes

Can any one tell me about gluing neatrix bushes. When I took the spring plates off the bushes were loose, not the OEM vulcanized ones. I've found a receipt in the file for Neatrix bushes. I seem to remember seeing comments about attaching these to the spring plates with superglue.

Should I superglue them back on now the plates have been de-rusted and painted? There appears to be glue residue on them from last time.

glue them to the spring plates on both sides, lubricate the bush face that enteres the chassis/cover.

Thanks Luke.

I guess I should use non-petroleum based grease so it doesn't eat the rubber?

Luke,

Does that mean that all PU bushings should be glued onto the spring plate, or is it just this particular brand?

thanks
Dom

i can't say for any other type, I believe neatrix are a bit softer than standard poly's so the mounting procedure could be different,
