Hi all,
I am currently going through and fixing all problems noted as advisories on my previous MOT certificate.
One of the things I'm finding troublesome is the O/S front lower suspension arm. It says the bushes are cracked and need replacing. I spoke with my mechanic friend who said it's easier/better to replace the whole lower suspension arm as it's less labour intensive and will therefore save me money overall.
I have looked online for these arms and found them but they come in two types - pressed steel or cast iron. I also read that I need to replace mine with the same type.
So, my question is, how do I know which one I have?
Many Thanks
Scott
