S2 wishbone bushes

[Chris5044]

I need to order 2 bushes for my front lefthand wishbone(from sitting in car)
dont think i need new wishbone?

had a knock to front left wheel
it seems wishbone is not bent.... but gone through rear bush

anyone any thoughts? ...... I was gonna renew bushes and c then...
PS: anyone got any bushes spare? ... do i have aluminium or forged arms?

Chris before putting new bushings in....

Check the subframe closely. It's been known that the subframes will crack if hit at the wrong point. Look around the access holes and drainage holes. You may have to clean the area to see if a small crack has formed. Good luck.

That's a forged arm so you need the larger bushes

thx for info peeps.....

just another thing.... will i have to replace wishbone?

And these bushes look different to mine (from vag parts)

which should i get ..(i only need 2 front/leftH)

If it was me I would get both wishbones done at the same time...

I did, and the difference is really noticeable and worth the extra pennies... (okay £££'s )
