I've got replacement brackets with the bushes in for the rear bit, and new bushes for the front part of the wishbone.

Is it relatively straight forward?

Any specialist tools need?

What size spanners are needed?

Any instructions would be most appreciated

thanks

 

I've done this job. It is easy, you remove the wishbone complete off the car. The lower ball jiont is sometimes hard to split, use WD40 a lot and be careful.
Once off the car, the bush can be cut out using a sharp hacksaw in one of the slots in the bush or you may have to drill the rubber to make your own slot. The idea is to cut through the steel sleeve on the bush that is a push fit into the wishbone.
BUT, getting it back is needs a BIG vice and a lot of force.

Why don't you just get it off the car andgo to the local garage and get them to press the old out and put the new back in ?
Much much better, and you save some £££££.

If you are not used to doing this kind of work on cars, suggest you get the garage to do them!

Good luck, Graham.
