#1 Rear wishbone cover/cap?
Posted: Sun Dec 03, 2017 3:20 pm
Hello everyone,
Just dismantling and cleaning my rear wishbones and come across something rather interesting.
The OS wishbone was filled with a lot of grease at the inner fulcrum shaft end and inside was this metallic object which needed prising off - pictures below.
I wondered if it was some kind of cap or something similar that had come away and rusted itself to the inside of the wishbone.
I haven’t come across such a cover in any of the parts books and indeed maybe it has nothing to do with the car at all and somehow ended up here...
Thoughts welcome!
Many thanks,
Rich
