406 rear suspension components, Advice please

Post by OutFishing »

Hello 406OC,

Thanks for help so far, new enquiry now i may very well need to change the rear anti roll bar bushes, drop links and toplinks on my 406 HDi 1999 (90) but are the parts the same across the range or is there a change (i have the facelift model) in part sizes bolts, threads etc.

Thank you, Garry

Stick your reg no on www.eurocarparts.com and it will give you the right bits.
Seriously steer clear of ebay drop links & top links, they're a waste of time.

I've no idea what database they use but perhaps it only does cars registered with mainland-style numberplates. I wouldn't trust it anyway.
