Front Torsion Bar Bushes

[Mick]

hey all i have a coolant and oil leak so i had to get under the car and i noticed a strange fluid that is on the bushing and pooled up ender it about to drip, it looked clear and maybe a lil whitish as well, the bushing has a big fresh crack in it and i can tell its a fresh crack cos the crack it really clean and on the other side there is a crack as well but its all dusty and dirty in the crack so thats why im pretty sure its a fresh crack, its not engine oil or coolant even tho there is oil over most of the underside of the car this is off to the side and its all dry right around that area and the oil is all black so it carnt be engine oil, im thinking these bushes might have some fluid in them or something but i dont know for sure so i was wondering if anyone knows what it could be

Castot bushes are liquid filled, sounds like you need to replace your castor bushes, its quite common, ive done mine.

You can either get aftermarket adjustable castor arms or get a replacement bush or a replacement bush that has slight adjustment, whiteline can supply the bushes.

Read up about front castor to get more of understanding of what its for what it does etc before you change them out.

is the castor bar also called a torsion bar? cos i used the fast program and it said it was a torsion bar

Ive never heard the castor rod being referred to as a torsion bar, but i do think what your describing is the castor bushes leaking, post a photo to be sure
