Fellow FBEK'rs

Went to rarespares with photo and explained I needed to replace the upper and lower wishbone seals as indicated in the photo.

He gave this kit that has 4 seals of each type in the photo. I compared them and now I'm scratching my head :eh:

Can anyone confirm these are what I need / where they go :eh:

Well..........

After consulting my 2 trusty workshop bibles I have concluded that the actual seals/boots I needed are pretty much the same
as the tie rod end seal boots and the seals I got in the kit are for the inner outer upper lower wishbone pins :crazy:

Cheers Lex

G'Day Sunnytim,

Thanks for the reply.....I need clarification if you could :?

1) All my (outer) upper and lower seals on the bolt/pins are homemade cut from some sort of rubber hose (good alternative i think) as in the photo. In regards to these home made seals what seals in the packet I purchased replace these?

2) All my (inner) upper and lower seals have the rubber seal/boot, very similar to the tie rod end seal / boot, as identified in the photo. So you can see why I assumed they are the same seal. What seal in the packet is meant to replace these?

If you could part with your knowledge that would be great...I want to put the front end on this weekend :D

Cheers Lex
