Hi,

I am now the owner of a 2001 jtd 100 brava and it has a few issues.
One issue is the lower wishbone bushes are worn.
Is there any reason yo replace the whole wishbone or can i just put new bushes on which are obviously a lot cheaper?

Thanks

Welcome

I'm afraid with these cars the ball joint and bushes are part of the arm... A new one is £50 independent or £90 from Fiat

thanks for reply,

i thought the ball joints may be part of them so i probably will replace whole wishbone but is it not possible to use the support bushes on ebay?

Those bushes would need to be pressed in I'm afraid, we did a few years ago (not for Fiats) and found they didn't last very long... If you are going to go down that route though, a polybush kit is approx £80 but thats a bit too much...

Best stick to getting the whole arm

Ok i think you just saved me a load of extra hassle, thanks
