Replacement of Suspension Wishbone

Model: Ford Fiesta Fiesta 6, MK 6, MK VI - Years 2008-2017
Part: Control arm

If the suspension wishbone breaks due to an impact, it is necessary to replace it with a new one rather than using a repair kit that includes the two bushes and the ball joint; therefore, lift the vehicle on suitable axle stands and remove the front wheel; then proceed to remove the bolts securing the bushes of the wishbone to the subframe, followed by the bolt that secures the ball joint to the hub support; then extract the ball joint and reverse the process to install the new wishbone, followed by a wheel alignment.
