FPUK can supply, although I had to wait about ten days for delivery as they were out of stock.

price list quotes
Front Outer Track Control Arm Bush
PFF19-101 2 per car £19.95 ea

Front Inner Track Control Arm Bush
PFF19-103 2 per car £16.95 ea

whilst you are 'remembering' take a look under the front of your 'bug eye' scorpio and see if you have wishbones or track control arms !!! if you have TCAs then you have a Granada.........but then we all know that don't we.

I wish they did have TCA's they are about a third of the cost of a complete wishbone , and they seem to make for a generally more trouble free front suspension set -up.
