#1: Changing lower arms Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Thu Jun 09, 2011 12:59 pm ---- The car is knocking a bit at the front so I'm getting a quote tomorrow from Peugeot to see how much they are, is there anything else I should change while I'm doing this other than the droplinks
#2: Re: Changing lower arms Author: Seabook, Posted: Thu Jun 09, 2011 1:06 pm ---- my only word is make sure you use good wishbone.
#3: Re: Changing lower arms Author: meady, Location: basingstokePosted: Thu Jun 09, 2011 1:07 pm ---- and get a price from elsewhere other than pug
#4: Re: Changing lower arms Author: Ste, Location: Hull -or- The World Of Info CodePosted: Thu Jun 09, 2011 1:08 pm ---- Basically if there cheaper than £40 a side they're crap budget ones and will last about 3-4 months if your lucky.
IIRC last time I went to pug they were around £80 a side, got OEM ones elsewhere for ~£60 a side I think, I also replaced my droplinks and all the bolts/washers ect.
#5: Re: Changing lower arms Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Thu Jun 09, 2011 1:08 pm ---- The wishbones will be Peugeot ones, and my dad works for Peugeot so I get parts at cost price + vat so don't mind buying my stuff from Peugeot
#6: Re: Changing lower arms Author: Seabook, Posted: Thu Jun 09, 2011 1:54 pm ---- good man
#7: Re: Changing lower arms Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Thu Jun 09, 2011 1:55 pm ---- So there's nothing else I should change while I'm there other than lower arms and wishbones?
if it aren't break there is little point to change it.
unless you are taking the front strut off
#9: Re: Changing lower arms Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Thu Jun 09, 2011 2:02 pm ---- No I'm not taking anything off that doesn't need to be
#10: Re: Changing lower arms Author: Pugsy, Location: Stoke On Trent, StaffordshirePosted: Thu Jun 09, 2011 2:20 pm ---- i paid £32 each for mine but they were crap cuz they were both broke couldnt take them back cause MOT was due the day after i bought them. like ste sez anything under £40 is a load of crap (ended up super glueing the rubber on mine)
#11: Re: Changing lower arms Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Thu Jun 09, 2011 2:21 pm ---- I should be ok pugsy as they will be official Peugeot parts, thanks for the heads up though mate
#12: Re: Changing lower arms Author: Pugsy, Location: Stoke On Trent, StaffordshirePosted: Thu Jun 09, 2011 2:22 pm ---- no problem
#13: Re: Changing lower arms Author: eddrj, Location: BerkshirePosted: Thu Jun 09, 2011 2:23 pm ---- i just got mine done peugeot near me was a joke £120 ish each wishbone just for the part be genuine best quality though ,
better than cheap sh*t .
#14: Re: Changing lower arms Author: furryhobnob, Location: NuneatonPosted: Thu Jun 09, 2011 2:28 pm ---- I should get them alot cheaper than that mate to be honest, other things I've bought have roughly been slightly higher than half price so that's what I'm hoping for this time
#15: Re: Changing lower arms Author: Ste, Location: Hull -or- The World Of Info CodePosted: Thu Jun 09, 2011 2:31 pm ---- If it's got anything to do with keeping my car on the road, and not finding a ditch I never grumble about the price lol
Better still if you get a discount like Sir Furryhobnob
