Replacement wishbones?

[sinbrad]

Ok guys, Looks like it's time to invest in some new wishbones. Just wanted to know if it would be worth getting replacement bones or can the bushes be replaced? The reason I ask is because I have heard that Polyurethane Bushes are the in thing and last a hell of a lot longer?

Polyurethane Bushes are very good but do make for a harder ride and a bit of a pig to fit. I changed the wishbones back in july and got them from eurocar parts for £30 the pair.

as mark says they do make for a harder ride and are a b***h to fit. at the end of the day its really your own preference on wither you want to feel every bump in the road. plus the price of wishbones now days they are so cheap its just as cheap to replace the whole thing as just replacing the bushes themselves.

yeah very easy to fit , i got my last ones for £20 from my brother and ive got to renew my arb links this weekend.

Don't think I could put up with a harder ride as it's hard enough already! Think I'll go down the route of just replacing the
whole wishbone. As the price suggests it would be beneficial to do just that. The last time I replaced them I managed to get a set from a guy on ebay and he's still up and running. Got them for less than £30 delivered

Why are they harder to fit...? I thought they came in two halves to make it easy. I know the ones on the rear of mine pretty much just slotted in. Not done the fronts but assumed they were the same...?

i think the ones on the wishbones have to be forced in and the polly bushes are alot harder than the rubber kind so much sweating and swearing will be needed
