Default Will newage lower wishbones fit a classic?

I had a 'little off' at our hill climb yesterday, and bent my drivers side front lower wishbone. A friend has a set off of a newage sti 03, but was wondering if his will fit?

All help appreciated, as have a few bits to fix now.

Cheers

Grant

I believe they will, but you'll need different droplinks for the ARB.

Thanks John- I presume you mean newage droplinks? Mine got a bit pressure anyway, so not deformed but replacing wouldnt be a bad idea

Yes mate, iirc the steel wisbones have M8 bolts one end and M10 the other and are bushed, whereas the newage are M10 all around and rose-jointed. Might be worth checking the ARB lengths too, but I'm not aware of any differences
