hi all, going to replace wishbone bushes and rear axle bushes for poly. my question is do I shot blast and powder coat original wishbones or do I buy new?

I would guess that new wishbones would be cheaper than powder coating them, unless you have a whole stack of stuff to get coated, in which case it may be worth while.

I think I bought the bushes from ebay; there was a seller on there cheaper than online stores...
