Used wishbones vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:
The Transit Connect Mk1 ran from 2002 to 2013, with a facelift arriving in 2009 that refreshed the front end. For wishbone purposes the generation boundary matters more than the facelift year, but confirm with your breaker whether a pre-2009 or post-2009 donor matches your exact registration, as running-gear details can vary within the Mk1 range.
The 2011 van is a late Mk1, while the 2014 Transit Connect is a Mk2 (which launched in 2013), so these sit either side of a generation boundary. Wishbones are unlikely to interchange across that Mk1-to-Mk2 change, and you should confirm this directly with the breaker quoting against your registration rather than assume compatibility.
Yes, on vans payload and GVW rating can influence the suspension and running gear fitted, so a higher-payload variant may not share the same wishbone as a lighter-rated version even of the same year. Check the plate on your van for the actual GVW rating and pass that to the breaker when requesting a quote.
L200 and L1 refer to body length rather than trim, and length does not affect wishbone fitment; trim levels such as Leader, Trend, or Limited likewise do not change the front suspension components. What matters is the generation, engine size, and payload rating, so focus on those details rather than trim when asking a breaker for a quote.
Yes, NS (nearside, left) and OS (offside, right) wishbones are handed and are not interchangeable, so always specify which side you need when contacting a breaker. Double-check by looking at the van from the driver's seat: nearside is the passenger side, offside is the driver's side.
The 1.8 TDCi is a Mk1 engine and the 1.5 TDCi belongs to the Mk2, so these units sit in different generations and the wishbones are unlikely to be the same part. Even within a single generation, engine size can influence suspension components on vans, so quote your exact registration and engine code to the breaker to confirm fitment before purchasing.
