How to Replace the Front Wishbone

Place the car on a ramp and lift it to a comfortable working height. Remove the front wheel. Locate the position of the wishbone behind the brake disc and unscrew the bolt that connects it to the wheel using the appropriate spanners. Extract the bolt with the help of a hammer and a punch. Rotate the wheel outward. Free the wishbone from the wheel. Now unscrew the other two bolts that hold the wishbone connected to the axle using the appropriate spanners. Once done, you can remove the wishbone and replace it with the new one. Follow the reverse order of these operations to reassemble. The vehicle is a Nissan Micra.
