Can a wishbone be turned upside down to be fitted on the opposite side?

No. The ball joint would be at the wrong angle and you would have to take the P bush off and reverse that.

I've got new p'bushes alloy ones, Naill as far as I can see the location for the ball joint is square to the centre line of the main body of the arm. So like welshpug said just turn over.

Sorry your right ignore me. I was thinking the gap which holds the ball joint was belt upwards but its not, the bend is in the ball joint its self.

So is that grinder for P bush, or does that knock off?
What about the other bush?
