Replacement of the Suspension Wishbone Bush

Model: Citroen Xantia MK 1 - Years 1993-2002
Part: Control arm

The failure of the support rubber (bush) of the front suspension wishbone is a fairly common defect and manifests as significant noise, especially when driving on uneven surfaces; remedying this issue is quite simple and economical, as there are specific repair kits available in the aftermarket; position the vehicle on suitable axle stands and proceed to remove the wishbone by detaching the ball joint from the hub support with a fork puller; it is likely that the inner sleeve of the bush remains stuck on the wishbone itself: make a notch with a thin cutting disc, taking care not to damage the respective seat on the wishbone, and proceed in reverse for the installation of the new sleeve.
