wishbone bushes

Post by tyrannosauRoss »

So I have a set of springs coming that I need to get fitted and at the same time thinking I should replace my MOT advisory of "front wishbone rear bushes deteriorating."

Any idea of costs? Should I get the complete set done at the same time?

I could keep with my modding theme and go for some VWR ones at £180 but really dont see how spending a premium on them would benefit me...

If you're keeping the car get powerflex bushes. They last forever and really help firm up the ride, there's no play in them.

buy superpro ones.. it's about £160 for the consoles (front-rear bush) and front bushes (go to Alex at AKS Tuning).

you want to replace front and rear front wishbone bushes at the same time.

Or you can buy them https://www.awesomegti.com/shop-by-bran ... -bush-kit/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Superpro make the VWR stuff.
