Suspension Parts Quote

[kizz]

Hi everyone,

I've been having some slight dramas with my sportivo where the car seems to be pulling left more than usual. After two wheel alignments and balances, I decided to book into Fulcrum. I'm a little concerned at the price, so if there are some experience guys here with these particular parts, could you comment to let me know if I can get these parts cheaper? I have a mechanic to do the job for me, I'm just looking to see if I can get parts cheaper.

I require the following:

Control Arm Bushing Lower (Left and Right) quoted $215

Rack End (right) quoted $31

Labour quoted $381.82 !!!

I am in the brisbane area. Any suggestions as to cheaper parts?

Thanks.

i would assume the labour price would include a wheel alignment afterwards which would be needed after replacing those parts.

fulcrum also install a castor correction bush when they do the front arms which fixes a lot of the zze left hand pulling which i also had issues with even with correct wheel alignment

Cheers for the info daniboy.

The alignment was also an extra $50... I feel a bit like I'm being overcharged.. >_<
