Hi everyone,

I have been advised that my omega estates lower wishbones and track rod ends need replacing.

I have enquired at main dealer and have been quoted some very high prices.

Can anyone advise on alternative replacement brands which are cheaper but still excellent quality.

Thanks in advance

IMO Lemforder are the best for lower arms and trackrods.....http://www.eurocarparts.com/

I would get the cheapest wishbones off Ebay (approx £50) the replace the front bushes with poly bushes (approx £40) and the rear bushes with genuine Vauxhall ones (approx £30) they will out last the Lemforder ones and work out cheaper

Good idea Pete ... IF you have access to the press/drifts that you'll need to press them in .... I think its a 10 tonne press needed

Lemforder via allgermanparts. Cheaper and more reliable source the ecp.Unless you have the resources to swap bushes out of course.

Or Febi seem reasonable for track rod ends.
