311.511.219 is the metal cover plate for swing axle torsion bars, not the rubber bushings at all.
Would pay us to get some of that stuff over to the mainland USA in a container - better still, into Europe!

Subject: [T3] Rear torsion Arm bushings?
I asked a while back about the rumor I keep hearing that the eurothane bushings squeak, and the new rubber bushings available don't last long enough to be worth it. That seemed to be confirmed by the list, and it was suggested the best option is to find good used bushings. And that perhaps T1 bushings would work. [ for a 67 square. ]
I've found this guy, who's ad claims to have NOS bushings:
http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/detail.php?id=298857
but is this the right part number?:
311.511.219 Torsion Bar Bushing 78 pcs.
And if so, doesn't the 311, imply that the T1 doesn't have the same bushing?
Thanks for the help.
