WES180 Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 I asked in Fords for a price on the wishbones and when he told me the price he said i had the 21mm. Just nip in or ring your local dealer and give them your reg number to find out, then you can laugh too at how expensive they are for genuine items!

Jeremyc Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Mine were also 21mm. I got under the car and use my digital caliper to measure it. Make sure you measure the bottom and not the top on the ballpoint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WES180 Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 I got a 21mm pair for £74 from a local motorfactors then gave my Ford mechanic mate £30 to fit them. Fords quoted around £400 supply only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
