Title: Front wishbone bushes ?
Post by mr._floppy on Feb 6^th, 2006, 1:30pm

Quick question, I've removed the old rear bush and didn't take note of its position on the the wishbone , there's a cut out on the new one , does anyone know if the cut out should be at 12 o'clock , 6 o'clock, Etc., or don't it matter ?

Should be positioned at 12 o'clock.

Much thanks, replacing the very soft rear bushes has certainly cured the high speed steering wander, low speed whiteline sensitivity, clunking on corners and steering wheel shake when light braking, which is £35 well spent, but unfortunately hasn't sorted the infuriating drifting to the left :-/

I'll put up with it for now.

BTW. replacing the rear bushes without taking the wishbone off is simplicity itself.
