Good Supplier For Front Radius Arms (Wishbones)

Is anyone able to recommend a good manufacturer / supplier for aftermarket Front Lower Radius Arms (Wishbones).

Looking to change mine due to an MOT advisory on the bushes (ref a post of mine on here from last April) and I’m hearing some horror stories about poor quality aftermarket parts, mostly of Chinese origin only lasting about 20K miles. I was told about parts from a US supplier called MOOG (never used before), these are supposed to be OK, but there again some of their parts originate from China.

I priced up the parts from Land Rover and got a shock at the price, about £200 a side with VAT but if it means getting a quality part I’ll have to pay the dealers price Mad . Expensive when you add the cost of the required front wheel alignment as well.

I could get just the bushes replaced but with 56K on the clock it seems false economy.

Thanks,

Look on eBay at item number eBay Item No. 223129459836

I have used this guy several times and he has always delivered quality parts - I think he gets them direct from LR, the last time I visited his premises he had a nearly new FL2 cut down the centre -butchered by LR after testing.

Give him a shout to see if he has the other side - I know he has a lot more parts than his eBay listings. Tangiers Orange - gone, missing her
