  4. i can see from the picture your wasting your time, the bent clips are a fraction of the correct size, unfortunately its the case with most of them, and they just spin off, if you can find a new old stock quinten hazel one, they are ok, but dont buy the modern quinten hazel junk made by firstline, theyre rubbish as well, as is much of that junk they sell, they cant even get the bush bore diameter correct in their track control arms the other option is to have a chat with your aussie mate justin, he usually has a genuine ford one tucked away somewhere for about a hunded quid
