I am working on a van with extreme wear to the spindle were the bushes have been incorrectly seated and the play is where the spindle has worn a groove against the inside of the eccentric washers.
so i am looking to find a supplier of the upper wishbone spindle and eccentric washers or advice as to what else the same spindle was fitted to in the vag range
heres hoping as there are no decent scrappers left around here I have posted in the wanted section as well
regards doug

dugwiththevwbug,
my T25 was borderline on MOT . I can get the rubber bushes for the wishbones from justkampers but where do i get spindles and eccentric washers from in case the spindle is knackered when I try and undo it?
I see you had a worn spindle recently. Any advice on sourcing spindles would be greatly received.

HI and welcome to the forum. Try sending a PM to this guy (Billy739)
https://club8090.co.uk/forum/memberlist. ... file&u=291 I recently bought a good pair of wishbones from him, here they are reconditioned and re-bushed with Brickwerks OEM bushes ready for the top balljoints to be fitted ..

Thanks Ian for this speedy info. I'll progress this together with finding out how to get a member number. My T25 is 1988 . Location Swadlincote.
Thanks again.
