A.A.Blatch is a distributor for Nolathane. Here's some information direct from Nolathane."

Nolathane has a unique combination of physical properties that allows them to develop stronger components and bring about the following improvements to your vehicle's suspension bushes.

• Chemical resistance to oil, grease, ozone and weathering.
• High load bearing capability (ideal for 4WD's, utilities and trucks.
• Outstanding abrasion resistance.
• Improved tensile strength.

The technology that Nolathane employs will result in.....

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

You may notice, in some cases, that the number of bushes shown in the kit, might vary from the original equipment. This is due to the engineering designs that Nolathane utilise.

The Nolathane design team considers what is the best and easiest way to fit their bushes and this may result in the use of half bushes for ease of application. these design characteristics result in bushes that are easier to fit.

In most cases the Nolathane replacement bushes are engineered to duplicate the original style. This results in a significant investment in equipment to manufacture these precision items and their ongoing Quality Control ensures that all the products they manufacture are ready for guaranteed fitment, that all kit contents are accurate and that the components will exceed their 2 year/40,000km warranty

FITTING INSTRUCTIONS

Nolathane Components offer superior suspension control and ride with extended wear life when properly installed. These components have been manufactured to fit with minimal labour on vehicles complying to original manufacturer's specifications

INSTALLATION PROCEDURES

• All suspension parts must be clean and free of paint, rust, grease and previous rubber deposits before fitting Nolathane components.
• Mounting pins, eyes and shoulders must offer no pitting, bending or distortion prior to fitting Nolathane components. where suspension parts show signs of deterioration or damage, they must be either replaced or repaired to manufacturer's specifications.
• Use lubricant supplied in kit. Grease all bush surfaces which are designed to pivot (i.e. internal bores and flange faces) . Do not grease outside surface of shackle bushes. Additional grease is available. Part number CVG10 (10 X 100g sachets)
• After Nolathane components have been fitted, vehicle must be at normal ride height (i.e. sitting on wheels unladen) BEFORE final tightening/torquing of location bolts, nuts and shackles is carried out.
• Before installing in vehicle, crush must be checked. Nolathane bushes have been designed to suit standard applications. Should vehicle be equipped with aftermarket suspension packages, size of bush must be checked for correct crush and outside diameter. All flanged bushes must offer 0.5-1 mm crush on each shoulder.
• Sway Bar Link Bushes - care must be taken not to over tighten Sway Bar link bushes. Nuts should be tightened until washer meets the bush and stops rotating and then tightened a further 2/3 of a turn. Over tightening compresses the material which reduces the flexibility and may cause the link to break.
