Hello... Just a quick one

Do all Renault 5 models use the same wishbones or are the GT Turbo different?

Cheers

Winston - I take it you want new? I am breaking a GTT.. or do you need them off a clio or something? (I find it very hard to keep up with what you're doing :laugh:)

I personally don't think there's any difference in the wishbones for the petrol 5's. Ive seen a pic of a derv one that looks totally different on ebay, My van was derv originally & has the same wishbones as the gtt though so i think it was wrong..

Take an old gtt wishbone with you if you can and compare it with the new one when you go to collect it.
GSF are great at supplying clio wishbones when you order a gtt one, done it to me twice now. The clio ones are about 15mm longer.

I can't think how they would differ... the driveshafts are all the same length etc

Winston I know you have had your fair share of willys and valvers, will the willy bottom arms fit the five subframe? I want to wide track the five

Yes they will...... my 5 subframe needed minor trimming but others said they bolted straight on :)
