1998 406 Break 1.8 16v
The rear mounting bush on my left hand front lower control arm has worn out and is causing noise.
Parts here are very expensive so I have taken to ebay for a replacement.
I found this Peugeot 406 Front Left or Right Suspension Control Arm Bush With Bracket | eBay (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Peugeot-406-Front-Left-or-Right-Suspension-Control-Arm-Bush-With-Bracket-/280995739880?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&fits=Car+Make%3APeugeot%7CModel%3A406&hash=item416ca6b8e8)
Can any one tell me if this is the right part and if it just slips over the end of the arm and bolts down or do I need some special tool to fit it.
The haynes manual is essentially useless on this but looking at the car it visualy looks like if I just remove the two mounting bolts it will slip off the end of the arm and the new one will slip on.
