Gents,

I've decided to replace the front wishbones on my Griff due to their general poor state and some visible damage. I have looked at a range of suppliers online but it's not clear who manufactures the wishbones, I am assuming there is more one fabricator out there. Is there a best of the bunch or are they all very similar in quality? Thanks in advance for any advice.

Agreed power or str8 six if they still do them. You could always try Redman racing also

I bought my wishbones from Power in January 2013, this is a pic of them after 3 years and 7k miles, yes I've wiped them down but still as good as when they were fitted.

Modern day powdercoat if applied correctly is superb, unfortunately when TVR got that massage they threw it in the bin !!!

Gents,

Thanks for the advice; I could provide a "before" shot to compliment your "after" shot. Very nice!. I will probably go with TVR Power and get the other front end rebuild parts as a package.

Cheers
