Which Wishbones - Mk2

Featured Replies

Good evening troops!

I need new wishbones for my 1.6 2006 mk2 zetec climate auto.

The trouble is, I don't know if I need the 18mm or the 21mm.

My reg is SH06 EKC. When I put it in Euro car parts it lists both the 18s and 21s! The only thing that's listed differently is the 21mm's say "with xenon" is that the only difference? I can't understand why xenon lights would require an extra 3mm thickness?

Can anyone shed some light?

Thanks in advance.



Only way to know is measure them even ford order both and send the unwanted ones back I think they are 18mm but I cant say that for sure

Thanks for the help

My 2009 was 21mm. You have to measure the ball joint by hand, easier if you jack up and don't forget to measure from the bottom as it can be 18mm top and 21mm bottom.

I'm needing to order one for my 2006, whereabouts do I measure? Do I have to split the ball joint first?
