    used Firstline many times for parts and never had a problem with them.

    I have also used Delphi and they are generally OK as well but I had a set of drop links from them on the VR4 which didn't last very well.

    If your top front wishbone ball joint has failed then you get just the replacement ball joint, it is held on to the arm with circlip of sorts.

    if it is the inner bushes that has failed and you have a lowered car then you can get camber correction inner bushes.

    Bye for Now!

    its the upper arm on the V6 that is on its way out. the easy option seems to be replace the whole wishbone. with a difference of £8 between ebay and camskill i am letting the garage order whatever they can get from dingbro. i have ordered rear bearings myself though. their quote for parts alone was £240 for both rear bearings. i got SKF parts for £65 each
