As This Is My 1st Pug I Aint Sure Of The Set-Up Yet...Aint Been Right Under The Car...Noises Front Both Front/Rear
Heading To Stealers Shortly For Some Parts..If Anybody Can Throw Any Other Info On This...That Would Be Great
2 X Droplinks
Front A.R.B Bushes
Rear A.R.B Bushes
Any Other Bushes/Arms That Could Possibly Do With Being Changed ?
Then Once I Am Tackling These I Will Of Course Check All Ball Joints/Bearings And What Ever Else I Can
Cheers

Why from the scrapyard? They will be just as shot and not much cheaper.
I'm sure droplinks are only like £12 new.
Start with droplinks, then topmount bearings then wishbones.
Rear - Not good. Is there play in the wheel when moved (when jacked)

wishbones are an absolute b*****d, one nearly broken arm, 3 attempts, bruised thumb, finally did it but be prepared, you will need to be seriously tooled up, both mentally and physically.
