Racing Green also lists the tubular at 206.10 each incl. vat.
Probably a good guide as to price anywhere else.

Standards are 177.36 incl. vat each.

Likelihood is they will have to order the uprated ones in (they did when I asked), but the standard wishbones are normally off the shelf.

Racetech Direct did have an offer IIRC for buying in pairs or maybe complete sets of four. Might be worth a look or even an ask...

lower ones are pretty expensive! who are the guys up north that sell the brand new chassis? I think they had a decent offer on recently for TVRCC members.

also just bear in mind with the tubular ones that in the event on an accident they do not give way like the standard ones do and will more likely bend/snap/twist your chassis.

Ive just replaced all my front wishbones £288 delivered from SC power. I did initially repair and POR15 my original wishbones but then decided as I was replacing everything else might as well go the whole hog. I still have my original wishbones your quite welcome to have a look at them, I'm in Manchester but could bring to Chatsworth, there no use to me and don't really want anything for them but if you'd like to exchange beer for them I'd be ok with that!biggrin
That stands if there any use to anybody on here really

RT racing had the best price for wishbones last time I looked. Check their eBay shop.
