Wishbones - Where from?
 
I need to replace the wishbones bushes on the Coupe GT5E, which is do able but I thought I save my self the effort of bashing the hell out of the old ones by buying new wishbones.

GSF only list them for non-powersteering and they are only £16 each with bushes fitted (£4 more than just the bushes)

Would these work on mine it has PAS?

Or

Where can I get some new ones with bushes in, this is all because I'm lazy and like throwing money at things for no reason :D

Send em to me and ill extract em.
Ive just done mine no problem.

Or....just get a vice and two tubes, one to fit over the fat end of the bush, the other to slip just inside.

Get a compliant friend to hold one end ( ooerr) and then line the small tube up and wind the vice up so it pushes the bush out.
No sweat, no need to swear, make a racket or kick the cat.
Putting em backs just as easy.
