I need my gearbox, 2 drive shafts change.

I also have a clonk which i think is a ball joint/wishbone, is the ball joint attached to the wishbone, so basically should i just replace the wishbone complete

Or have i got it wrong hahaaa

Also how much should i be looking to pay for all this work.


Thanks

gearbox change if you supply box, clutch and new shafts probs £250 labour at a garage. add another £100 for a wishbone supplied and fitted, can just have the ball joint replaced but it needs to be pressed out, and you have to remove the whole wishbone anyways.

if you were closer could have done you the whole lot for less on the side ;)

Im off to get a quote at a mates garage tomorrow but dont expect discount so we'll see.

I have gearbox but need to get other parts, when buying a clutch kit does that come with everything i need???

How much did you pay for the job???

To be honest if a garage/mechanic has it id get them to do it all, i have 2 other projects to get on with as well as work so no time really.
