Dear Journalist,

In a suspension system the bushings might be some of the smallest products. But they are more important as you expect on the first view.
Bushings are important for good directional stability and for noise protection. They must be hard enough for fast driving and soft enough for off roading. Bushings with eccentric can correct the axle geometry. Bushings for stabilizers are important for safety.

trail master by maas already has a wide program in bushings and we present you here the newest versions for your news section.

But we need your help as a journalist with contact to thousands of readers. We are ready to invest in our bushing program. More details, wider range, higher capacity - better price. So - very interesting for the customer. Help us to find out, what is important for the customers. Ask your readers to tell you (or direct us), what they expect from a bushing program. Which vehicles, which applications. Soft hard? Your help is welcome!


Thanks and best regards

trail master eccentric bushings
 

Suspension bushings are the link between your vehicle and it’s springs, struts and shock absorbers. They provide the movement and/or mounting points in your vehicle’s suspension system. Hence these suspension components can influence both the ride quality, steering feel, as well as the grip of the tyres, performance of the brakes, and stability of the shock absorbers.

Eccentric or caster correction bushings have the outstanding function to correct the caster angle after a vehicle is lifted.

Should these bushings be worn, an unpredictable and more to the point unsafe motor vehicle can be the result
Caster bushings are available for Toyota, Nissan, Land Rover and Suzuki.

trail master polyurethane bushings
 

Unlike rubber, trail master polyurethane suspension bushings are not bonded by compression. trail master bushings are mechanically fitted with minimal crush of the urethane material, and the centre pin is lubricated so the component freely pivots without restriction.

Combined with trail master's ability to maintain the bush shape, this free pivoting provides sharper handling response and greatly increased suspension control.

Technical developments in suspension design have provided many of today’s vehicles much improved on-road handling. Using trail master suspension bushings ensures there is no weakness in the suspension and therefore maintains steering control.

* Enhanced road holding, steering and performance
* Less change in suspension geometry under load, braking and through corners
* Longer suspension life and less repair time
* Longer tyre life
