#1: Parts here we come Author: LilLew, Location: PlymouthPosted: Thu Sep 02, 2010 4:47 am ---- Hey all
i have recenlty noticed some strange tyre where (pervious post) and i done a few checks on the front end and i have a little bit of play and tbh nothing looks in very good condition and could do with being changed
so i am looking at changing
Wishbones
track rod ends
droplinks
just to tighten the front end and steering up a little bit
what would be the best place to get these parts
i have had a look on EGAY.CO.UK and for all of them parts are £78.12 which seem pretty cheap but i dont really want to get low quality parts.
i know some people say try pug them selfs but i phone them and the said it would be £87 per wishbone (wow that seems alot for one part)

The cost of their driveshafts has gone up from £80 to £110 in the last few months. Not particularly cheap.

I dont mind paying a little more and hence why i made this post because i would end up doing them like 3 times a year
