Lower wishbone
The ball joint and rubber bushings of the transverse arm can be changed. The ball joint is connected to the lower transverse arm with three screws, which are fixed on the upper side with self-locking nuts. When installing the nuts, tighten them to a tightening torque of 35 Nm.
The control arm rubber mounts can be replaced, but the control arm must be taken to a workshop to replace the bushings. The bushings must be pressed in in a certain position, so it is better to entrust this operation to the workshop workers. In no case do not try to knock out the bushings and drive in new ones. To perform this operation, it is imperative to have a press, if the work is carried out independently, then before pressing out the bushing of the rear transverse arm, you should pay attention to the position of its kidney-shaped hole
