Metalastik Bushes

SteveG4TRA · 2025-05-25T12:35:10+0100

I am seeking a replacement Metalastik 13/1899 bush 40mm O/S diameter 10mm inner tube diameter as shown.
It's not a Land Rover item as far as I am aware.

Any suggestion where I might obtain a replacement based either on the part number or the dimension?

If it’s fitted to a standard landrover it may be known as something else.
Where on the motor is it? Etc

I am afraid this is not a Land Rover item. It is fitted to a torque tube extender mount to the body of a Grinnall TR7V8. The back axle is a Rover SD1 item, but extender mount is smaller than the Rimmers offered item for this vehicle, so it's a typical Mark Grinnall hotchpoch.
I just thought that you guys on here may have the expertise to find a similar replacement bush.

Thanks for the info I'll drop them an e mail to see if they might be able to come up with an alternative.

What about looking at super flex bushes?
Not metalastic but they also may have sizes to suit.

I am in touch with PolyBush, they have a couple of poly jobbers that can be adapted to fit. However I just thought someone might point me to a trader/site that recognises Metalastik 13/1899 and says "Yep, I've a couple in my parts bin"...........
Bit of a long shot that......
