Default Doing the suspension

Ryt people, going to fit the G MAX suspension (50mm ) to the saxo soon and was wondering what else is worth doing while im doing the shocks? i really feel like the front right wheel is wobbling about when going over wee bumps in the road. Ill sort the drop links too but I defo thinks its worse than just drop links.

Any advice guys? cheers.

if the bushes and balljoint are worn then its easier to fit a new arm, however you can change individual parts but a press is a good idea for changing the balljoint

If you want to do a proper job and refresh the complete suspension then look at
drop links
arb bushes
wishbones
maybe track rod ends

all the nuts and bolts removed in the process should be re newed, particualy the nylocs.
