Re: Wishbones
Not too expensive-could have been worse. Probably improve the ride a bit as well

Re: Wishbones
Yes good point, certainly explains the squeeking on the on side and the clunk I could hear after breaking...

Re: Wishbones
Just had mine done, speed humps are a lot easier now and I don't have to soak the bushes in lubricant before each trip.

Re: Wishbones
Did you get your camber reset after having the bushes replaced?

Re: Wishbones
That's on the list as part of the job, the garage know t25s so I'm sure that will be done

Campershack did them so although I didn't check I'm pretty sure Andrew would have done the camber.

Re: Wishbones
About an hour each side plus half hour to reset the camber/track.
These often collapse and are easily seen when looking from the front end (large allen headed bolt) that appears offset from the center of the bush when they need changing.

Re: Wishbones
Picked up the van earlier, it drives much better with the new wishbone bushes, also no more squeeks from the suspension and no knocking after breaking
