Ah! What nightmare. The more I investigate the more confused i get. Theres also a few on ebay listing them as 172 wishbones. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CLIO-SPORT-2-0-16V-172-LOWER-WISHBONE-SUSPENSION-ARM_W0QQitemZ330394660345QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item4ced0e6df9...

Nah theyre no good arent these, bummer. They do fit clio's but not 172's. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/RENAULT-KANGOO-CLIO-MK2-KUBISTAR-SUSPENSION-ARM_W0QQitemZ370345419362QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item563a4ea262

fook knows how an arb attaches to these wishbones i have! Maybe the kangoo doesnt have one! lol :rasp:

Yes, I can see now mate. Theres a plate where the hooks through on your pic? There isnt one on these wishbones, so I dont see how they can fit now. Ill call renault tomorrow to confirm. Legend on the rings! Cheers!

Although they seem to also be from a kangoo looking at the part number. But theyre given as the same part number, clio/kangoo. The only difference seems to be the strenghtening plate part with the extra hole.

Hi mate, calling renault tomorrow for some bits, so will check part codes, but 100% theyre 172 wishbones as far as i know. They have the strenghtening plates and hole to match on wishbones itself, which the valver doesnt have. Yup, i know about 2mm either side needs to come off the hubs. Ill...

Also picked these up Friday night. :o 172 widetrack bits almost collected. Just need to find a willy/19 16v ARB now. So bits to get now are; willy rack poly bushes willy ARB trackrod ends

LMAO! Memories!

Day 21 Finished off the beam today. Coloured those end caps up in silver hammerite and 2nd coat of black hammerite brush on, on the actual beam. Not a perfect finish, but where do you draw the line. Almost tempted to do them again. In an ideal world should have sent the ends off to be...

Yeah agreed on the beam removal. Was those nuts on the thread for me as I could only get 1/4 time turns. Took too long. Dead arms.com job. Probably just gonna go 432 on the bay colour tbh. COuldnt possibly imagine it looking good in any other colour than that.

Day 20 Better weather today so decided to do some more colouring. All the other bits that need doing on the bay are being saved for rainy day at the moment. At first I was going to make this a quick job, but more I thought about it I thought, while its off, do yourself a favour and do it...

Day 18 Wanted to get my remaining brake bits sprayed today, but its pissing down so havent been able to do anything much really. Got rear beam off. What a BAD job that was. Lots of swearing involved. The nut of the 2 on either sides, behind the sills, the one on the big long thread, man that...

Day 18 Well...spent all day today farting around with my mangled/rough 172 hub and driveshaft, dismantling, cleaning up the parts etc. Where is the time going!? Anyway, drilled the nut off today. Drilled down the side of the nut, to the bottom of nut, kind of making a slit in it, then got the...

Lol! Seriously mate I agree, ANYTHING OTHER than silver for calipers in my books is illegal (Maybe black on odd cars). HATE ALL coloured calipers unless you have bought Brembo's or AP racing etc, then its deserved. In my books coloured calipers make it look like youre trying to turn the car into...

My 172 goodies turned up today! :D Driveshafts, hubs, calipers will be used. Just need a williams anti-roll bar now and widetrack is SORTED, if anyone has one..........!? Cant get one anywhere! :evil: :evil: And look at the size of the 172 caliper to the std 16v! Its massive! I cant...
