You could then refurb the original GM wishbones at your leisure. Polybushes at the front, GM bushes at the rear and new balljoints if needed.
Followed by wheel alignment at Tyre smart Witham.  :y

Price works out more than the ATP kit, especially if allow for the track rods and droplinks ;)

Then refurbish the ones you take off ready for the next one :y

A couple of years ago it was around £75. You need to make sure the front and rear track rods are freed off before you go though. This often involves new rear track rods at £100 a pair. ::)
If you get to the point where you are ready to take it for alignment, give me a shout and I will see if I can come over and say hello.
Also need to give them the WIM settings rather than standard ones. If you dont have them let me know.
