Anyone know a part number for them with the 18mm ball joint. It doesn't say on the ECP site which is annoying.

See this is what I suspected so I emailed ECP and they said it comes with one,Roll eyes.

That's almost £100 a side then. I'm sure peugeot is about that...

I think i've had Motaquip before, remember them being good quality. Right, off to find Motaquip...

if you can't find a local stockist then try http://www.motaparts.com/

They list wishbones at £19.84 + vat. (VSA 914 / 915)

Ah maybe it wasn't motaquip i've had before. Part of me wants to save £100 but the other wants to pay the extra for some decent quality items that will last. In the future i'm hoping to do the eibach/bilstein combo so seems silly to skimp on parts now?...

Motaquip are decent Smile (They are PSA owned, often get used by dealers as replacement parts on older vehicles)

I know this is a bit of a dig up but are these really any good? Silly cheap those wishbones, even if i'll just use them for the bones itself.
I have ball joints (peugeot) already, I will replace the bushes with partner ones too.
What about the front bushes (circular ones) is it worth getting peugeot ones of those?

Rufe is currently expensive I think - that was from MRG last year. I couldn't believe it either!
Its strange. Some things FRF are cheap, but others they can't get close to MRG. Dunno
