Technical Wishbone cast iron vs pressed

[berlinasportiva]

Hi,

What’s consensus in those, are they interchangeable? I’ve ręce iced new set of cast iron ones with my bravo ( 2.0 sport) but original ones are pressed steel. Shall I order new ones or would cast iron ( I presume stilo ones) fit? Or is it bad idea in general

My thoughts are from a rust point of view go for the "cast metal ones" and from a weight point of view go for the pressed steel ones, either way as a pair obviously.
This end of the Country rust is less of an issue.

As already have them in the boot would go for cast iron if there is no difference in dimensions and so, so interchangeable?

No knowledge re that, can you check part numbers for cross reference?

The only difference I could find in the wishbones in terms of fittings is the size of the holes for the bolts, 12 or 14mm. If the bolts fit, they are interchangeable, I believe all Bravo use the 14mm ones, certainly mine does but it was only late Stilos that did. The pressed steel style is technically the correct one though and there is a different part number for Xenon light models.

Both types are sold for Pandas too. Agre with Mikes comments.
