Hi,
Quick question..... when I qwas replacing the lower arm on the Ka I was thinking "Wouldn't this be a lot easier if they had used hinges instead of bushes to connect the arm to the chassis". Presumably it would also require less frequent renewal of arms. What's the thinking behind using bushes? Is it because it's cheaper or because they help dampen road noise?
The Fiesta has one hinge and one bush instead of the Ka's two bushes but the hinge is at the front, wouldn't it have been better placed at the rearmost attachment point?
I'm missing soemthing here :)
Cheers,
Peter.
