Author	Subject: P bush 13mm bolt
Markie Junior User Location: Porthleven Registered: 10 Jan 2014 Posts: 93 Status: Offline	Post #1 I recently put some new wishbones with vibratechnic p bushes on, have just been under the car to check the bolts and one of the 13mm bolts that go into the p bush won't tighten up. The bolt will undo and tighten up to a point then it just keeps turning quite freely. New bolt? Really don't want to have to replace the p bush.
