Help identifying a part on the rear supension

Featured Replies

Hi guys, after a lot of back and forth my Mondeo is finally running again (thread here, for anyone interested), I've found that I have to replace a bushing on the rear suspension.
It's a typical metal-encased rubber bushing, it's completely worn out, but I can't for the life of me identify the part on typical sites like autodoc, the naming convention is just completely random, it seems, and there are 2-3 bushings in the rear that looks somewhat similar, and none of the webpages offer any dimensions on the parts.

The naming is like:
- "Bush Left and right, Rear Axle, inner, Lower"
- "Rear Axle, in front of axle, Left, Right, outer, Lower"

Some are both left and right, some just a single side, the same part is sometimes named "outer, inner, upper, lower" in the same description, and it's making my head spin.
I've found an image of the offending part, but of course the site I've found it on, does not specify that part in particular.
Part is circled here:

I think it might be this one, but I have no idea at this point.

Any help is much appreciated, thanks 🙂

Yeah, sorry for the cross-forum posts, just trying to reach as many knowledgeable people as possible 👍

Hadn't read the link on talkford yet, but seems like I can get the bushing from polycraft. That is good news 🙂

Replying on talkford as well, if anyone there might be interested.

No worries MH83

Yes, as per the link, if anyone is uk based you can also get it off ebay via a uk e bayer (at the moment anyway)

Oh, nice, might be cheaper and faster than getting it from Ukraine.

I found polycrafts eBay site, but do you happen to know what the uk eBay sellers name is?

On E bay they are called Parrs4Ford. Here is the link on e bay. You can contact them via their e bay advert. NOTE, It is only ONE bush for GDP80 but still a lot cheaper than the arm. Advert says it is the genuine bush

E Bay advert says Parrs4Ford are in Crawley, West Sussex, RH1 (UK)

Looks like that bush fits various other Fords with same design rear suspension

I suspect Parrs4Ford maybe just the sellers e bay name (No other parts available from seller under that name) There are a couple of Ford dealers in Crawley, I suspect they could actually be Hendy Ford (just a guess)
