Wishbone lower arm + P bush

Post by Welshy_Pete »

I'm wanting to change both wishbones lower arms along with a P bush.

I'm wandering do partner berlingo lower arms fit? do they have the right P bush?

If not is it separate P bush then a decent wish bone?

It's for a 306 hdi 1999

Thanks

OK, if we are talking the heavy duty one piece forged steel arms, then Partner/Bingo ones are wrong (too short by 10mm each side). These arms can have bushes replaced, but not the balljoint.

If we are talking the pressed metal arms then you can use a Partner/Bingo arm with 306 balljoint fitted. Pressed metal arms are the same left to right, only the P bush is oppositely constructed.

The eye bushes and P bushes are not too hard to swap, you need a vice and hacksaw/chisel to remove old bits, and a few sockets plus vice to press in the new eye bushes. P bush can be tapped home, making sure it has the correct alignment. I fitted poly P-bushes which rotate on the (greased) shaft rather than being a tight press fit.
