Where I drew a red rectangle on the image is an area covered with a 1-2 mm layer of rubber.(or rubber like material).
The rest is covered only with a thin layer of paint. (very easy to clean when sandblasting).

Very good to know! I can give up that coverage without a doubt.

Bushings aren't glued or vulcanized from factory, they are just squeezed in really, really tight and after a while they get attached to the parts.


I'm not 100% sure. But I think the 2 big bushes were glued from the factory to Rear axle strut. (inside part).

2 bushings were removed whole and you can see an extremely thin white layer (between rubber and steel). Maybe I'll take pictures to show this.
The second argument is that everywhere under the paint there were small signs of rust - there was no rust on the bushing area at all (a sign that they were sealed from the beginning and moisture could not penetrate there).

Looking to order the respective bushes I found this ad: the kit contains superglue
