The various parts which make up the 205 Gti Front bumper mounting system are prone to rust. If you are removing the front bumper you will more than likely find a lot of the parts unusable on the rebuild. Most of which is not available from Peugeot anymore.
We have re-manufactured the complete bumper mounting kit, most of which in stainless steel. So the bumper can be removed and re-fitted in the future without the risk of damaging the now hard to find plastic bumpers!
This is the one bush which gets over looked when the engine mounts are uprated. The original bush is usually worn and allows unnecessary engine movement for race/rally/trackday setups.
Location: This bush is located within the fork which connects the subframe to the lower engine bush.
Suitable For:
Fits all 106 and 205 models incl. GTi
Direct replacement for original
For a more compliant version of the bush, take a look at the Grp.N version.
Joints in the original gearchange rod setup contain plastic bushes that wear over time, making the gearchange very unprecise and leading to rods popping off and leaving you stranded on a side of the road or track. Our rods are steel-jointed with securing clips that cures both issues.
Replaces standard rubber joints and mounts on all the mounting points of a rear beam.
Fitting this kit means the rear beam is rigidly attached to the chassis. Giving a more predictable rear end under heavy cornering and more control during lift off over steer.
Front flexible joints are replaced by acetal bushes (4 in the kit) while rear rubber “sandwich” mounts are replaced with “aircraft spec” quality aluminium blocks with offset studs (2 in the kit). This kit is an evolution and improved fit version of our original BBM-SA-R kit. Unlike standard items, our uprated items will not wear out!
This modification is a real benefit to a track orientated 205/309. It will also benefit a road car with respect to handling characteristics but at an expense of a slight increase in road noise experienced in the cabin.
The original linkage setup consists of two plastic bushes and a spring washer, even when new this setup had a lot of unwanted play in it. The linkage will now more than likely be considerably worn, causing the linkage system to feel “sloppy”. There are other kits available which replace the plastic bushes with bronze equivalents but the spring washer design is still utilized, along with the original large shanked bolt.
Only by changing the design of the pivot system (by using this kit) can the sloop be reduced entirely.
