Question Fiesta Wishbones

I have a 1997 MK4 Fiesta Chicane which I bought last year. Every MOT it has had it has needed new front wishbones, except for last year when I had it!!. Recently I had it serviced and the mechanic mentioned that they will probably fail this time round. I was wondering if anyone knows if this is a job I can do from home with a Haynes manual or whether its best to get it done at a garage.

Any help would be great

Thanks
Richard

it is possible to do at home. it all depends on how handy you are with the spanners. you can replace the arms as a unit or i think off hand you can just buy the bush which is about a five or 10 pounds. bushs abit harder to replace but a large hammer will do it. give yourself at least an hour each side. you might need a second pair of hands though to help.
