Raw Striker rear top wishbone
As title, I need a replacement top rear wish bone for a raw Striker. A friend tried to press a bush out for me at his garage and didn't support
it fully so bend and broke the single end off :-(

Hi
I'd suggest a local fabricator, just get it repaired / new one made - WKD or DS Motorsport or somebody similar??

Have you tried MK Sportscars. They have the Striker rights now.

Have made an enquiry with MK.
The local to me (Coventry) Motorsports fabricators are too busy and he honestly said it would be too expensive !
Seems it's also quite bent!

I could have a look at it for you. I'm in the Engineering game. How about nylon bushes or rose joints?

AJC, Do you think you will be able to repair this wishbone using the other as reference? Want to DM me ?
Ref bushes I'm tempted to use the bonded bushes again, poly bushes slook to be expensive for the 18x I require but I could be wrong! I don't
want to go rose jointed as I will use the car on the road..

Not sure yet, a mate who's going through a rough time offered to do them at his workplace ( lorry mechanic). Assumed one end was supported.
Don't really want to be asking to much.
Just said STOP don't try anymore.
Will try again myself when have them back.
