Are front suspension arms the same on all Xantias?

[ashy90]

The rear bush on the drivers side front suspension arm has had it on my Xantia 2.0 HDI,

Before I order a new arm, can anyone confirm if all the suspension arms are the same, or do they differ with balljoint size etc

Thanks

All the same inc Mk1 / 2 (except Activa which has a special one with a threaded bush on it).

If fitting a new bush, make sure you use a decent one, and fit it at the correct angle, or it won't last very long!

Can the bushes be replaced without changing the whole arm? If so is it difficult?
On the Ford's the bush on the front arms can be changed but they never do, they just replace the entire arm

The bushes CAN ne replaced, but the trick is getting them correctly lined up. If you get it wrong it will be loaded incorrectly (when fitted to the vehicle), and will fail fairly quickly. THIS is why it is quicker to just replace the arm.
