Does anyone know how to tell the difference between 205 gti and 309 gti lower front wishbones. Is there a code on them or is it just a matter of measuring. Could you fit a 309 to a 205 by mistake and if so what would be difference be if any when fitting it.

from memory im sure theres about a 15mm difference in length, if you did fit a 309 one the driveshaft would probably pop out of the hub.

The 205 ones all seem to be ribbed the 309 one's are plain

Originally 309 ones were ribbed and some pattern ones are. Peugeot no longer supply ribbed replacements though, in fact the last set I ordered looked so like the pattern ones I've got, I refused them (at £185 a side, don't take the pi££!)

you'll always be trying to straighten the wheel everytime you go to a different side of the car, it is quite noticable.
