Title: Am i being thick?
Post by: RJT on 30 May 2007, 15:10

I had a pair of front wish bones delivered last week and set about fitting my recently purchased poly bushes this morning. Only to find the wishbones are different where the large rear bush is fitted.
What i'm  trying to say is as they aren't sided they should be exactly the same shouldnt they?i.e
shampfored on top of the hole so the bush goes in easier. or do i put one of the polybushes upside in down?

I have to ask.... are they a) the correct wishbones b) the correct bushes? I'd take a look at how they are fitted on your car first off and make sure the new ones go in the same way. But to be honest except for the split type bushes the rest where a mere to put in! scrapped fingers, bruised knuckles, I'd recommend a rubber lubricant!

Good luck
