Well I ended up only doing one job,The ball joints. And I decided it was to cold to do the bushes today but 1 job out of three is good enough for now. To be fair the bushes dont really need done at the minute, so they will wait,
The ball joints were past it even though they were new 3 months ago. That will teach me to get some off of Ebay, Passenger side was rattling like a soup spoon in a pot,and the drivers side was starting to go the same way.
So the moral of my story is dont waste money like I have done!. I'm the Idiot :0

I honestly can not remember what make they were,mate. I went to the local motor factors this time, not only were they round about the same price but they are branded parts and hopefully will last a wee smidge longer than three months,lol.
I just dont understand how the ebay ones went so quick,I dont hammer the car, I always try and avoid pot holes,when possible,and I always slow right down at speed ramps, Just proves its always a good idea to inspect your car from time to time

My jobs: swap out the autobox on my E220 for a manual (bought a wrecked E200 for this purpose); then replace the diff, as it's whining; after that, just change all the bushings on the suspension, front and rear. Quick wash and polish, then it'll be time for lunch.
