Thats one cup wishbone and one non cup wishbone.

If they were both on the same car I would expect it to pull to the side under braking

Previously the car was damaged to front left side - found broken subframe (even non sport i gues) and two different wishbones - so some one change wishbone to non cup. So only outer ball joint hole is different between these? if so i think i can just drill new hole.
Is there are difference between ph2 sport 172 and ph2 cup 172 subframes?

 

[Chip-mk1]

I dont think the subframes are different, but I havent personally compared to be 100% sure.

Yes its just the mounting hole that is different on the cup wishbone, so redrill the other one to match the cup one with the balljoint pointing forwards.

Thanks for your answers. :drunk:

No problem at all mate, happy to help.

Ive been playing around with balljoint location quite a bit lately.

You can actually move it further than the cup setup if you wish.

So the 172 cups use different wishbones to add some caster?!

well thats my new thing learned today! might look into getting some cup wishbones if i ever need to change! lol

 

[Chip-mk1]

Yes they do. It very slightly lowers the car as well.

I didn't know this either Chip - might have to open up my 19's outer hole now.
