Ha, i know its not quite the *correct* forum for a Chrysler question - but i know that a lot of you are connected in the motor trade.

I have a Chrysler Voyager 2001 (dont ask, its the family wagon), which has failed its ticket on front wishbones.

Didnt think this was such a problem until i found out that the garage chap cant get any genuine arms until Decemeber - yep Decemeber!!!

We cant find any pattern parts for this car either.

At present my family truck has no MOT, has been failed and refused a ticket on these arms and we cant get any until December - what a nitemare.......

Anybody know of any places to get pattern parts for these trucks?

Thanks in advance.

Is it the earlier or later car?
If its the earlier car:

There's your wishbones.
Find an eBay shop called 'thequafac500' and give them the moog part numbers and they'll be able to dispatch them either same day or next working day

I've even got you a link to them:

Good work by Davey

Failing that, long shot but a scrappy or a Chrysler forum - www.PassionChrysler.com perhaps

Just so all know

Silver actually borrows the M3 from a mate of his - the Chrysler is actually his pride and joy - he loves it more than life itself. He uses it to pull the ladies.

Top man!!

Thanks for the replies - even JJ's. He has let my secret out....

if not should be able to get some easily from america and get them shipped over quicker?

silverfox999

I think i have found a US pattern supplier and am waiting for monday to do a deal.

Interestingly, Chrylser UK are going to be (fingers crossed) supplying a spare 7seater until the parts are sourced. I think someone in parts is going to get a bollocking for not keeping a lid on stock in the UK...

James

wow, thats extremely helpful of chrysler uk!

silverfox999

It is. That said though, it is only five years old and they should have a stock of service parts available at all times (i am sure there is/was a law that manufacturers had to prove they had spares available).

Its not like it is a rare random part that has never failed on a Chrysler before; its simply a pressed balljoint on a suspension arm.... on a 40k vehicle... i was stunned that it had even failed...

James

prob because american roads are flat and straight, not like those in the uk full of speed humps & pot holes therefore they're designed for the abuse they get in the uk market!

silverfox999

Ha, i think you are probably right.....in fact i think you are right!!!

A friend of mine has a similar aged one with low miles, he has had wheel bearings and antiroll links replaced. All under 5years with approximately 50k on the clock.

Weak amercian tat. Trouble is the car does everything else we want it to do and is quite comfy. I will never buy myself an american car after this episode, i have learnt my lesson!!!
