Wishbones front suspension N/S & D/S...Ease of fitment

Hi all,

My front suspension is just terrible - both the front near side and drivers side wishbones have had it - Butsed big time. Has anyone fitted replacement wishbones themselves, and so... is it an easyish job to get done (myself), and do I need a splitter or any other spec tools for the job. I know that the tracking will have to be done.

Thanks for the help, much apreciated. Smile

I tried to do mine about a month ago and couldn't get to open the nuts holding the wishbones due to the lack of space underneath the car Sad

easy job if you got a breaker bar Wink or a hammer to break off the bolts.

hardest bit imo is just getting new ones in Laughing

Right here's an update. I found x 2 wishbones (Driver and near side) brand new for £75.00 incl P&P. So yep thats £31.50 and around £11.00 to £12.00 P&P. Also got garage now to install the new ones for £25.00 per side.
So am pleased Smile Yey.
