Front swing arm installation angle into rear large bush?

Featured Replies

Hi replacing bushes and swing arms on my sons MK1 fabia. Large consol bushes have gone but what angle does the swing arm get fitted into bush in relation to car. Not sure if its fitted horizontal and pulled down or at an angle downwards. Cant tell from old bushes as the centre has parted company from rest of them. Old bushes seem to have been fitted upside down as bump in bush is furthest from car. Hope that makes sense.

Yes found it but also another from febi. Hatboy installed his downwards and febi more horizontal so not sure which way is correct. On the hatboy one it looked like it needed lifted to fit ball joint and febi needed pushed down. Cant tell on mine as both centres of bushes have parted so they were loose and no way of telling

Scrap the above. Just had another look and reckon I have got it. Compared the two and had a closer look. Absolutely choked with cold/flue so brain not working as well as it should.

Thanks for the reply
