Any Recommendations for Wishbones??

Ive had cheapo P bushes aince day 1 and owned 3 of these had one snap going round a bend hit a lowered manhole cover and send me spinning luckily on a wide road, had 3 more snap in past and then the weld popped on this wishbone but did hit a major pothole.

The wishbone isnt really muchof a prob as can re-inforce the welds if needed, but a good set of Pbushes and front bushes and ball joint can make a huge difference cheap ones dont quite cut it in performance either as very sloppin on handling too

I had a hell of a lot of play in one of my wishbones in my old DT a few years ago. I used to hoon it down the same back-roads every morning on the way to the mine to do my dissertation, and there was one long sweeping right-hander that used to have my arsehole twitching like a rabbits nose if I went at it enthusiastically. the rear end just wanted to overtake the front the whole way round. Swore I'd never use cheapo wishbones again after that experience!!
