Ciaran 4 Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 I have recently done all the bushes on my car replacing them with PolyBushes.problem is after doing all this their is still a clunk from what seems to be the wishbone.My mate seems to thing that inside the poly bush metal tube their should be a metal sheeth.I never noticed it on the old wishbone bush before it was removed. So is my mate correct or speaking pish?? Link to post Share on other sites

mannie 0 Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 Should not move . I bet you've had bad vibrations through your steering wheel at 70-80mph. Link to post Share on other sites
