im sure iv answered this

easy todo drop links

the nuts may spin on old ones just chop them off though as you get new ones

no need for compressors

where abouts are the drop links as i have knocking noise when driving and have had the ball joint changed and still get a noise. How much for the links and can it be done by myself or is it a pro joby.

[stevenet15]

drop links are about £12 a side from citroen and there located behind the front wheel connecting to the strut and the other end to the anti roll bar

as matey said above lol

there not a hard job to change, i'm gonna give mine a go

also was thinking you say its not your ball joints, but it could be either of the bushes on the wishbone

i know you can get the bush which tightens onto the footwell but dunno if you can get the other one

you can get the ball joint and wishbone bushes on there own.
having the same problem so i'm putting on some new ball joints and putting in some powerflex bushes instead of standard ones.
the ball joints only cost 15.27 plus vat from citroen.

theres two bushes, i can find the one circled green but not the one circled red
