Title: Where to buy wishbones and rear track rod end arms
Post by: Mr Hagon on 30 May 2008, 09:03:18

I've been meaning to start a new topic to get some advice on where to buy wishbones and rear track rod end arms.

According to Tony at WIM I need to replace the wishbones as they're shot and he was unable to free off the track rod end arms, so I need to purchase some before I visit WIM again.

Having done a little looking around it seems like buying GM wishbones can be expensive and Tony has had experience of pattern parts that are identical, just cheaper.  As for the track rod end arms, again I don't know if a pattern part will suffice.

I am well aware that I can PM 'andyc' for Vx TC prices, but before I do so I would appreciate advice on whether GM parts are recommended or whether pattern parts will suffice.

Thanks, a quick search of the site shows them as being able to provide the wishbones for £21.39 + VAT per side.

No joy on the track rod end arms though.

Cheers Dazzler.  I assume you're talking about the wishbones - do they do the rear track arms too?
