dtbs LI32.35-P-047253 - Cracking/Grunting noises from area of front axle

Anyone know where to get this Devcon a0059890971 or a suitable alternative? Seems like it is normal 2 part epoxy, but the dtb says to let cure for an hour..

Yeah the fix is to fixate the torsionbar to the mounts.
So guess it can be done with any 'strong adhesive'but if you insist on original parts only, that Is it .
Personally if mine where affected I would just get the best epoxy and stick to installation instructions etc. god knows how long this partno has been sitting in a warehouse ..

Knowing its not really useful in the US but
I have a shop called Polyservice here in Holland, I think their also in Germany and always follow their advice when it comes to resins and epoxies ..They have their 'homebrands'.

I think you are after a torsion and weather(temp-wise) resistant expoxy glue that bonds well between metal and rubber?
Hope this helps a bit..and you can get your issue sorted..

Depending on the amount you get for that money.. I will have to pay about $10 for 25 ml of epoxy-glue.
Then question is how much of it is needed?

The picture looks like the 2 1/2 ounce 2 part epoxy dual syernge. DTB says to use all that is in the tube.

I would take that, as not so much difference in price anyway, just realized we talking about a 100k car here may as well stick some MB glue underneath hehe , be careful to prime your surfaces as described etc?
