Failed Cry
 
Both front wishbones excessive movement.
 
Annoying really as they have only been on the car just over a year and done less than 2500 miles.
 
Tester also said one of the hubs (might) be worn, anyone got a good used / new one suitable for 24v?

Sad Sorry to hear of your problems Tenfut.
 
I wish you all the luck in getting your problems sorted.
 
Wishbones have been covered on this site quite extensively, including sourcing them, so have a search about.
 
Best regards

Sorry to hear of your problems.   I had the same problem a few years ago and just ended-up going to my local Ford Dealer and putting £108 in his hand for the hub.   Then getting bearings for it.   Worth while I thought, and it's still going very well.

Can anyone tell me if the front hubs are the same throughout the range or are they different on the 24v?
 
TIA
