On a slightly different subject, are the front and rear wishbones on an Ur-q
interchangable? They certainly look like they are. I've just fitted two new
ones at the front and reckon that the bushes in the rear wb will probably be
just as bad, so I could fit new bushes in the wishbones that I just took off
the front and fit them to the rear.

Could I?
