Hi All, I took my car in for a brake check.... and the garage found a bit of play in my OSF Lower Wishbone.... are they common to fail or did I have some of that saab bad luck. Andy

Gents, I've just bought some Powerflex bushes to replace the rear bushes on the front wishbones on my 2001 9-5. They came from an online retailer and I selected the 62dia ones as the rear of my bush housing is about 60mmID. Now I've got them I cannot see how they will fit as they are stepped...

Saab 9000 CSE LPT MY 97 Hi, folks. Reading threads about bushes ( no pun intended ! )....I understand that these "soft" screws.....item 20 on the steering parts diagram CAC94 F7580 should be replaced when replacing the front wishbone mounts. The Saab replacements have no thread......instead...

can anyone tell me if they have purchased front wishbones off ebay, only my sportwagon (55 plate) needs a nearside replacement and i have seen a pair for around £120 but they are discribed as suitable for vauxhall/ signum / saab 93.At that price it does seem like a bargain, has anybody any...

Hi saab fans the front bush on my 03 95 wishbones both have play in them the rear bushes are o.k. does any body now if you can replace the front ones with poly bushes and leave the rubber ones on the rear ?

Hi saab fans does anybody now where you can get a front wishbone rear bush for my 03 95 i can only find the front one on elk parts and saab parts. cheers

hi all, over the past week the car has been on its axle stands and had the following done a. new rubber gearbox mount b. new nearside front arb bush c. new front bush bearing brackets - previous ones discintegrated d. new steering rack gaiter e. new droplink - I was warned and yes it did sheer...

What's the general consensus on effect of replacing the front wishbone bushes with poly? Worth it or not? I'm getting a clonk and sometimes a crack when driving over speed humps (PITA that they are). I had a quick look the other day, nothing seems obviously loose, no play in the ball joint or...

Hi folks, My "new" CSE failed its MoT on (amongst other things) corroded front aluminium spacers for the front wishbones. The rear ones were OK, but as I have four new ones in stock I thought I'd change them all. There isn't much left of the nuts that hold them to the subframe for a socket to...

Well, having nothing better to do this week I decided to replace the clutch and slave cylinder on my Aero. Thought I may as well do it as the head was comining off agian for a snapped exhaust stud. I've noticed that all the exhaust studs that I've seen snap do so just below the head face. This...

I finally got around to doing this job. I thought my front brakes pads were shot (actually they aren't - it must have been something in them, or perhaps the rusted edge of the disc catching the heat shield or caliper). Replacements were Powerflex bushes, and the job was OK. One small accident...

Hi, I had my gearbox replaced on a 1995 9000 aero and over christmas i started to to get a clunking sound on slow down and acceleration - I had a quick look and it seems one of the two bolts that hold the bush to the car won't tighten up fully - it looks like the captivated nut has either...

I've got some poly ones to go on here, but I was just wondering, is it possible to do this without a ramp or a pit? Because surely you have to tighten everything up at the end with the weight of the car on it. Can you do this at full lock maybe?

After a year, i've finally got round to fitting mine with the bushes that I prepped with poly that long ago. I now have a couple of old bushes if anyone wants them to fit poly bushes at leisure. There's nothing wrong with them either, just got swapped out that's all. David.

I am refering to the 'bearing support end piece' that fits onto the front bush of the front suspension wishbone.Pn. 4426003. I found that a couple of them are broken on my car. They appear to be aluminium castings ( two per side ). It looks as though someone ( an MOT tester??) has levered...

I finaly have the Superflex wishbone bushes fitted into the butterflies. I have had them lying around so long I have forgotten, should there be some of the small metal tubes to go through the centre of the red bushes? Also, how long do you all estimate to fit them? Thanks Skiddins
