Re: 4th & 5th ES Master Set and Trailing Arm Polybush Guide
Hi guys, sorry for the thread revival but I'm a stuck with my 4th gen master bush set that i want to fit to my 5th gen.
Here's the problem:
When I got the 16-3106 packet open I found these bushings. I have 3x 2294 when I should have 4 of them and I have an extra 8096 (which is for the top of the stock shocks i believe) in the fourth ones place.
I believe I should also have a packet of 16-3106 which are two pairs of front strut rod set bushings aswell. These are no where to be seen so i can only assume they were taken out of the kit before it was sent to me (i bought it off of a certain person on here who supposedly sold the whole thing brand new and complete) [ANGRY FACE]
Also am I right in saying that the 8x 2280 are no good for the 5th gen and I would need to buy the specific 5th gen equivalent? I know this has been spoken about earlier but between the wrong bush in one unopened packet and completely missing set 16.7103, I'm pretty confused...
Could somebody give me a hand clearing up exactly what i need on the front end of the 5th gen?

Yes that is correct, the 2280's are for the 4th gen only as front upper arms and different between the 4th and 5th gen. It appears you need to get the 16.3119 kit https://www.energysuspensionparts.com/16.3119
