so toay i whiped the drives side wishbone off and took them both to a mate who pressed the old bushes out and pressed the new ones in (they stick out on one side but fit nice and tight) and he also gave me some new rubber boots for the ball joints which saves me changing them :D any way here a few boring pics. i didnt get one of the track rod ends but you know what they look like.
