Hello.
My name is Jan.
I am Viva enthusiast from Norway. Proud owner of 3 Vivas.
HB GT. HB DE LUXE. HA Beagel. Maybe the only Beagel in Norway . Good British steel. Its difficult with spaer parts in Norway so i struggle
a bit. MY Beagel is desperately need for some new upper wishbone rubber bushes. Hope someone could help me. Nice to be with other
Viva enthusiasts in the forum.
Regards Jan

Hello & welome - Jan.
Have u tried Adrian Miller at Viva spares (click on the spares link to the left of the screen) he may be able to help .
I dont know what the beagle upper wishbone rubbers look like , are they similar to the viva HC . If so I may have a set of 4 new ones. I bought them on ebay thinking they were for a HC but the inner diameter hole is much larger than a HC If you have pics of these rubbers or at least some description / dimesions i will dig out the ones ive got to compare.
Cheers- Jon

Hello!
HA wishbone bushes are unfotuantely unique to the HA range, so the HB and HC ones will be of no use to you for your Beagle.
Apart from finding new ones which do occasionally crop up on E-bay etc, then you have only one other option. A company in the UK called Pop-Browns manufactures a polyurethane version which can be used instead of the bonded rubber ones.
Here is a link:

Hope that helps.

Hi
Those bushes are definately HA bushes. I'm reasonably certain from the photo that they are upper ones, but the lower ones are very similar - but different ( :roll: ).
I don't know, people without HA's buying HA spares - whats the workd coming to!!! :lol:

Cheers all

You can also get them from Pop Brown, but then you have to use the old outer ring.
