Suspension arm pin or bush excessively worn Nearside (carrier arm bush) [5.3.4 (a) (I)]
Suspension arm pin or bush excessively worn Offside (carrier arm bush) [5.3.4 (a) (I)]

Just had my 2004 v6 fail its MOT for the first time not bad for a 15 year old car!
I’m assuming that the carrier arm is what we would call the front wishbone but I don’t know what the numbers mean , is there any one can help me with that?
I have watched the YouTube film on replacing the wishbone and feel confident enough to attempt the job myself!
I just need to source and order the parts, any suggestions would be gratefully received as well as anything to look out for doing the job, it looks like a straight swap over but I’m sure it not!!!
