Both near and offside wheels are showing signs of being "toed in", and up on the ramp at ATS the very pleasant chap was happy to show me the excessive play around the bushes at the rear.
He advised that replacing the bushes is possible, but that often times the bolts to the radius arms are a bugger to get out in one piece, and for the work involved it is probably a sensible move to replace the radius arms too.
The price quoted for replacing both sides, parts + labour + VAT was £470. I've not yet had time to phone around for other places to do this, but I thought I'd get a sense from here if anyone has any feel for whether this is in the right area price-wise. ATS are massively convenient for me, so I am prepared to pay a little over the odds, but don't want to be completely ripped off.
Any ideas on price? I believe the parts are somewhere in the region of £70 per radius arm?
Cheers!
