    what would be the problem with my car the driver side front wheel seams to be pushed back further than what it should be and i havent hit or scrapped anything and when i get full lock to the passanger side it scrapes bad n sounds like its going to rip my whole arch off but am still none of the wiser on what it could be any ideas?

    shouldnt cost too much to sort out

    new wishbones arent much

    and fitting isnt hard

    Around the £50 - £80 mark depending hwere you go, but best off to do both sides at once.

    Also Alex, try telling that to steve_vts when he done mine lol
