Bongo Fury

It's the bottom balljoint that is captive in the wishbone. IIRC, I think the bushes ARE listed with separate part numbers.

just got it back, new front and rear bushes handling seems firmer when going around corners .

AVA Leisure do them separatley for £17.95 for the front and £19.95 for the backs dont know how much postage will be.
Mine were £18.65 for the front and £11.65 for the backs

Good one

Just a point to note though.....if the bushes are replaced it is IMPERATIVE that the wishbone securing nuts are torqued with the suspension at normal running height - not with the car jacked up otherwise the metalastic bushes will split prematurely

hmmn not sure about if they did that, but they did the 4 wheel alignment too.
