Cally Turbo Wishbones and Poly Bush questions

Hi,

A couple of questions regarding front wishbones and Poly Bushes.

Im doing an Engine conversion in a few weeks to my Calibra. Im fitting a Turbo lump complete with F28 and Subframe into my 8v.

As the Engine and Subframe are already out of the car I thought it would be a good oppotunity to change the Bushes.

First off im going to buy some nice new wishbones. Are they all the same on all models of Calibra? As I want to buy these

<a href="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=4623442765&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT" target="_blank">http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...me=STRK:MEWA:IT</a>

The advert says they'll fit but I just wanted to make sure.

Then im going to buy these

<a href="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=8042055517&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT" target="_blank">http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...me=STRK:MEWA:IT</a>

Again I just want to check that these are the right bushes for my car/subframe.

Finally is there any other Ball Joints/Bushes etc that I should be renewing at the front end or does the above cover it all?

Thanks for your time

Neil

yeah they will do if you are doing all that get the rear set as well and get it all done at once, powerflex do a camber adjust kit for the rear

Make sure you get the new collets for the wishbone bushes. And do your ARB links and track rod ends too. ARB links are especially important!
