wishbone

How big a job is a rear wishbone replacement ? One of my rear wheels is slightly out of spec on camber and toe and despite being told that the rear beam is probably bent I'm thinking the wish bone is far more likely to have bent rather than the beam itself. I've just found a site quoting...

While attempting (i couldn't get the dam strut top mount off, plus GSF gave me the wrong shocks [:@] ) to replace the front shocks on 1.8 20v i noticed that the wishbone bushes on the drivers side wishbone appear to be torn or separating. Would you say that i have anything to worry about...

Had my rear wishbone bushes replaced a couple of months ago during my suspension change. During my MOT yesterday, the tester was going to give me an advisory on the bushes, saying there was play in them when turning from lock to lock. However, I told him they had just been replaced, so he...

Hi I have bought some cupra wishbone bushes to replace the ones on my PD130. As they are solid, compared to the PD130, they should be better, and also get rid of the clonking suspension i have :cry: However i have a technical question, once the bush is in the mount, how do you get the...

Guys this mod will not work with our cars[:@] Although I did purchase some having done some x referencing with my local parts man, it seems that they dont fit our cars. The chassis arm that the bush fits into is different to the 130/160PDs. Moreover, the 160Pd has a different subframe, so...

Hi guys. Do you need access to a press to remove the old or fit new bushes? Thanks in advance, Mark

Ok I had my car serviced at JBS a couple of weeks ago and asked them to look at a knocking noise on the passenger front. I was taken ino the workshop and shown a knackered track rod end, play in the rear wishbone bush and play in the ARB bush. (the ARB stuff were changed including drop links...

Seeking your collective wisdom on this one.;) Dealers have said that I need to have the front wishbone rear bushes (think that's right?) replaced as they are cracked. The car is 6 years old with 80,000 miles on it. Are there any other bushes I should get replaced at the same time (front...
