Wishbone bushings replacement

    Hi, I'm getting a couple of bushings replaced (front L&R) on foot of a nct visual fail. Anything else I should consider? What I mean is, does this automatically mean anything else has to be adjusted like - alignment/tracking etc. The side slip test is marked N/D and I presume will be done on retest.

    Thanks

    Yes full wheel alignment will be required

    Put decent bushes into it, not the cheapest you can buy. What car is it and someone will recommend a good brand.

    Thanks folks. Got sorted today. Don't know the make he used but he wouldn't use junk. I saw the really bad one and it was pretty shot although there was no knocking, handling issues which I thought was a bit odd.

    I'm aware of not using cheap parts (last job done I supplied the T-belt/w-p kit 'continental')

    I got full 4w alignment elsewhere with an excellent job done for 40 quid. It defo needed doing.

    Hi everyone I am just looking for some advice please. Can a 4 wheel alignment be done properly in 30 minutes? I’m waiting to book an alignment and have been told by one place it should take 2 hours to be done properly and another place said it can be done in 30 minutes for a lot less money. Unsure what to do.

    I was in and out in about 30mins - done by a guy that came highly recommended.

    Retest done today

    Side-slip/alignment test : Front axle 0.0m/Km

    Don't think it gets any better than that 🙂
