How To Tell Between 309 And 205 Wishbones

[Spiky 37]

i'm stripping a 309 and i wanted the wishbones, but i have a funny feeling one side is a 205 one and the other a 309

 

how can i tell if they are 205 or 309????

Measure from the ball joint to a bush, I dont know the figures for each but if the measurements differ then you know you have a problem. You can actually see the difference in length when you hold them side by side although its not a massive amount.

309 ones:

 

 

If you notice the top surface where theres a whole, its completely smooth for the 309 ones. On the 205 they havestraigh diagnal bumps. its hard to explain, but if someone has a pic of a 205 wishbone it will be obvious.

Yea the 205s have webbing which helps identification. It would usually suggest they're stronger too but I'd doubt there's anything in it in reality.
