Replacing Suspension Wishbone

Model: Chevrolet Aveo MK 1, T200 - Years 2002-2011
Part: Suspension system

If you hear noise while driving over rough surfaces coming from the wheel, it is likely that a bush or the ball joint of the suspension wishbone has failed. In this case, you can use a repair kit or, given the relatively low cost, opt for a complete wishbone replacement. Lift the vehicle on a ramp, remove the front wheel, and the nut securing the ball joint to the hub support. Use a forked puller to remove it. Next, move on to the bolts securing the wishbone to the subframe and remove it, then reverse the process to install the new one.
