just wondering what everyones opinion is on this.
im in the middle of building my car up again, just resprayed the subframe, because it had a little suface rust, im just being fussy, lol. while ive had it apart ive noticed the wishbone bushes have seen better days. now i was going to just change them but ive seen some topics on here where people have changed the whole wishbone. do they do this because its just easier? or is there another reason?
plus does anyone now the price of these bushes from renault?

thanks in advance, steven. :)

if you go to gsf you can buy the wishbones which come with new ball joints and bushes for about £27 a side, cheaper and easier!

if you wanna get polyurethene bushes you can get them from rally design. but as has been said already new wishbones generally will come with bushes anyhow
