A20 LEE 0 Posted March 15, 2004 I'm thinking about buying new front wishbones, has anyone on the forum replaced theirs and able to help with these questions? How much for brand new ones? Wheres the cheapest place for OEM wishbones? Are they available separately? Can you buy them without bushes? (got powerflex) cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Supercharged 2 Posted March 16, 2004 just replaced mine, and got 'em from the stealers for £51each side inc VAT, which isnt too bad i reckon Did that include the bushes? - GSF do them with or without the bushes fairly cheaply but not sure of the quality of the bushes.

scruffydubbers 0 Posted March 16, 2004 i ve done mine, about £15 from gsf and then i bought poly bushes, although the vr6 wishbones are longer. dont know if gsf sell them :? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
woody 0 Posted March 16, 2004 Changed my wishbones about 6 months ago. £50 for both from the stealers and decided to change all of the old bolts and i-bolts for new ones. Nearly had a sh*t fit when they told me the price was going to total £92. As it was more than half of the bolts had been on the car from new and sheared off unstead of undoing.

dr_mat 0 Posted March 20, 2004 GSF do sell the VR6 wishbones, yes, complete with bushes, for about £35 each, IIRC. I don't know if the dealer-supplied wishbones come with bushes or not, no-one has mentioned that so far.. I've heard mixed reports of the GSF wishbone bushes being a bit rubbish.. YMMV.

dubbprince 0 Posted March 20, 2004 did mine about 2months ago... Answers: How much for brand new ones? buy it from German French Swedish...they come with or without bushes..and are around the £32 mark. Wheres the cheapest place for OEM wishbones? i wonder if GPC in luton can get genuine ones....but it doesn't make a difference. Call them on: (01582) 728892 Are they available separately? Yes, but i think left and right can be the same, just turned round thats all. Can you buy them without bushes? (got powerflex) i'm pretty sure you can...theres a GSF in: Bradford-UNIT 4,MITRE COURT,CUTLER HEIGHTS LANE. (01274) 652020 Sheffield- UNIT 1/2,THE VALLEY WORKS, GREENLAND ROAD. (0114) 2617888 theres also units in north and south manchester. If postage is a problem with them...i dont mind lending a hand mate. Sanjay. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
