BOB B Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Hi, I'm soon to start changing my rear wishbones for a new pair I have bought, I had the rear of the car up in the air doing a few things so I thought I would have a look. I couldn't figger out how to get any kind of socket or wrench on the front most nut, it just seamed to be hidden in amongst the frame. Also reading the manual it seams you have to take a lot of things off, ie, discs, suspension and other stufffff. Has anyone got experience of changing these and could offer advice, or do I put it in a garage? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Animal Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 I helped my dad do mine last year and they didn't seem too bad to do. Took about 3 hours to replace all rear linkages on both sides. It can be a bugger if you get a particularly stubborn bolt but I don't think we struggled too much. Wheels off, discs off, shockers off then give all the bolts a good dose of penetrating fluid, have a brew then come back and hopefully everything will come off without too much of a fight. It really wasn't as daunting as it seems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOB B Posted April 11, 2012 Author Share Posted April 11, 2012 Hi Animal, thanks for that, I'll give it a go in a few weekends time and see how it goes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
