Re: Bushes for Escorts Rear Damper

I ordered this one and its a perfect fit

Re: S3 layshaft slop

Yep very much so, it can be a combination of end plate bearing cup, end plate bearing, the layshaft and the hub bearing. 0.02mm mm wear on the layshaft or the the bearing cup can result in huge differences.

Re: S3 layshaft slop

This other Spanish endplate bush is 24.3 and a good fit with bearing and layshaft so it looks like anything under 24 is worn and could lead to play on the wheel Sent from my SM-A320FL using Tapatalk Sorry, If I'm being thick, but I presume you're measuring the ID of the bearing track?
