If the rearward bushes are OK, I'd be inclined to poly the fronts, and if necessary, replace balljoints.

Personally, if the arms look OK, and the rears are knackered as well, I'd be inclined to rebush rears, poly fronts, and replace baljoints if necessary.

If we just need to replace the fronts and decided to poly them would we need the geometry set up afterwards?

in an ideal world it should be done at least once a year anyway

I would advise getting it done once everything is right again. I know it's not cheap and a bit of a pain for those of us who are miles from a decent, WIM approved centre but it's cheaper than a set of tyres

No, only need full geo when removing/replacing complete wishbone

True, but see my above post Depends how soft the bushes were when it was last set up really

Question OP asked re; geo was answered correctly but as you say Paul, wouldn`t hurt to get it done

Good point geoffr70

 This topic has been covered many times before surely members have got the just of this by now

Not necessarily, and no doubt the same question will be asked again in the future. As the OP said, she tried searching to no avail so asked for advice. That`s what the forum is all about

Not arguing with you over that Rob The answer was indeed correct... I just went into a little more detail

TBH, if I lived closer to WIM (as I haven't found anywhere else I trust yet ) I'd get mine done every 9 months or so anyway as I do 20-25k per year anyway

That said, I haven't had this one set up at all and I've owned it 18 months Just seem to have other things in the pipeline that are taking longer than planned

not highjacking this post but today noticed that shed 4 needs new wishbones and links which i have was wondering has anybody heard weather pedders have sourced poly bushes for the omega yet,as would like to poly the bones i have and the pedders might be cheaper than powerflex (every little helps)..

think powerflex is the only option. And only for the front horizontal bush.

 just hopeing there might have been another option.
