======================================

Careful when you get it done, make sure they don't lower the price and fit cheapo wishbones, they don't last, fit genuine Ford....

Hi tony,

thanks for the reply...

I think it's just the Wishbone Bushes need replacing.. Not the actual Wishbones..

Not sure if they have to be replaced with the Bushes as one complete.. But he didn't mention that the wishbones needed replacing also. just wishbone Bushes...

Cheapo wishbones it is then :)

With the Mondy, its cheaper (labour wise), easier and alot less hassle to replace the entire wishbone.

Yes that did happen at first but Ford eventually supplied a slightly shorter bolt to prevent it fouling the gearbox. Although they never officially condoned the fitting of the bolt the wrong way, I think they accepted that most garages were going to do the job the easy way

Does the Car require a re- tracking when this work on the suspension wishbones, linkage arms .. ?
