Material Bimetal: steel sleeve with bronze liner |
Part number A-6067 |
|
Application Torque reaction spring assembly |
Quality Manufactured to original specifications |
Features
- Bimetal construction (steel + bronze)
- Steel outer sleeve maintains round shape under load
- Bronze inner liner for smooth operation
- Prevents ovality during use
- Superior to cheaper brass or bronze-only versions
★ The steel outer sleeve is essential to maintain the circular shape of the bushing during use — cheaper versions without steel sleeve deform more quickly and lead to uneven wear.
Installation notes
Check the torque reaction spring shackle for wear before fitting new bushings. Bushing must fit tightly — if too loose, the shackle itself may be excessively worn. When fitting, tap the bushing in with a hammer until it is fully seated.
Historical context
The torque reaction spring was introduced in mid-1942 to reduce pulling to the left during hard braking — a problem caused by the front axle 'rolling' forward on the springs, thereby affecting the steering.
