I recently had a set of aluminum trailing arms serviced by a local shop.
They replaced the rear bearings and pressed out the rubber bushings in preparation for
converting to graphite.
I think I've got a problem with the bushing removal. When the shop pressed out the rubber bushings, they also removed the steel
inserts from the trailing arms.
I know that both the graphite and the stock bushings expect these inserts to remain in place.
According to the local Porsche dealer, the inserts are not available as a separate part.
My fear is that I now own two attractive aluminum boat anchors (with brand new bearings).
Does anyone know of a fix for this?
Thanks
Joe
