Can someone confirm wishbone bush Pt No

20vcqdriver · 02-05-10, 08:56 PM

Any chance someone can confirm the correct part number for the front wishbone bushes on a 1986 Cq. Thanks.
Think this clank is from the Powerflex bushes so like to get a genuine set before my trip to Bens on Friday. Cheers

Control arm, LCA, A-arm, wishbone.

Control arms:

Standard bushes:

Polyurethane bushes:

If the suspect is a polyurethane bush, a simple test is in order... spray a little WD40/Penetrine/CRC on to the bushes and go for a drive. If that fixes it, remember it is only temporary. You will need to R&R them and grease them with the right grease.

Thanks chaps,
8A0407181 looks like the right ones going from the pic. Do not have ETKA at home its all at work...

Think I need new bushes or wishbones as it appears that both sides (nearside the worse) are moving back and forth a few mm enough to upset the alignment. Has gradually got worse over the last 2 summers..
Was going to go back to standard whilst I save up for new wishbones and a new set of powerflex bushes. Will be getting the wishbones seam welded and braced before fitting too... Details to follow--

Alternatively,someone can burn you a copy.

Saw ETKA but couldn't guess it was it's name so thanks.

Might I know that nice lady too?

Anyways, 7.99 is not a lot so will try and have a look for my own car then.
