Got car back from full serive (ive got AA cover, and they wont let me do it myself :S) but was told the front driver side anti roll bar link bush was needing replaced. seems an easy enough job. but i need some of your help with making sure the part i get is correct.
garage wanted £50
as far as these parts are going...its only looking around 15-20 for it
cgi.ebay.co.uk/NEW-PEU...4cf51ba55c
just need to know. ill do both sides because no point just doing one. other will just follow n all.
many thanks

Yes sir, they'll be fine
You may need an angle grinder to take the old ones off, you can get one from Argos for 15quid and that would be perfect for this kinda job.

i just did mine, the top nut is a c*** to get hold of, i ended up using an adjustable with a narrow head.
just undo the 2 bolts and swap the bushes, 10 min job
no need to undo the drop links
oh make sure you do tighten them right up

Bushes were about £5 each from Peugeot last year.
Very simple/easy job to change them.
