i recently had the really bad wheel wobble and it turned out front discs were warped so replaced them and pads. However i still had shake when driving and it also turned out one of my cyclones was warped.

So having a new wheel put on all seemed fine. However now my car seems to pull when i accelerate or take my foot off the gas and in general seems really twitchy and to be honest dont feel that safe driving it.

so im guessing the issues ive had before have put lot of stress on something especially as my car is lowered as well

Reading up lot people saying about front bushes and p bushes ?!

i looked on gsf but im not really sure what i need/what im looking at ... can someone help me out with part numbers.

i saw these on ebay and not sure if what i want ?!

Don't need those fancy ones anyway. Get some standard replacements. Yes

Isn't the problem with most of the other makes/suppliers the durability of them?

after talking to a garage they are saying i would have been better off buying two new wishbones than just the bushes ?!

is this the case or would that just be more money for no real gain ?!

They're only saying that because they can't be arsed to swap the bushes over. Buying the bushes seperately is fine but obviously you or somebody else needs to fit them to the arms.

Depends if they charge more in labour for swapping the bushes than the wishbones cost...

BUMP!

Obviously VSK 623 is the number for the front bush? Is this the kit I've read about on the 205 forum? Bushes and bolts?

I know service box only lists the replacement arm with bushes

Mei.

do you know if LEM3249 are the same as VSK623?

I've just removed the bones on the rallye, and they were fitted with sh***y pro-flex!

no idea Andy, I doubt they are identical but should be of decent quality, originals are Kleber.

that part number doesn't come up on the lemforder catalogue nor are any bushes listed separately other than the arb ones.

you picked up another rallye? the later alloy bodied P-bush is great btw, but I don't think Moptaquip do them yet, loads cheap on ebay, they're £20 each from pug.

had the rallye a while now, and been doing little jobs for now.

I'll put a project thread up soon

I've got loads of these LEM 3249 bushes. I bought them as gti6 specific, but not had a pair of o/e bones to compare them.

fitted rbs to my rallye Thumbs up
