R/anti roll bar stabiliser arm (e bay)

Post by Floodys »

So I had a check on the rear of the d8 estate today and had knock both side, from what I can see its defo the stab bars, now I have seen them on flea bay for around £6-7 delivered, anyone used these and any idea how long they last? I haven't had a price from my motor factors yet but from looking at doing the job, quite easy so would be happy enough if "cheap" ones lasted couple of yrs/ 20-30k miles.
I'm thinking that there may be other bushes etc worn at the rear but thought I'd get these done then have a feel for play etc!!

The ebay ones are crap, they'll last a year if that (Just been there & done that :x )
Get them from eurocarparts, they are a far more solid construction & hopefully you won't be repeating the job next year.

Got to agree with teamster,bought a pair of them off ebay one lasted a month then broke and the other one is rattling after 3000 miles also fitted 2x track rod ends at the same time and now the rubber has perished through FALSE ECONOMY!!!
