Drop links & Front ARB

[Stephen Duncan]

Guys,

Knocking noise from the front of the car, had a look and drop links look pretty worn so decided wouldnt hurt to change them. Give honda a call, pulled my pants down at the price (£120), so had a quick look on Ebay and saw a set for £20.

Has anyone had any dealings with these? Wouldnt ususally trust Ebay with this kind of thing TBH or can anyone recommend any alternatives that are cheaper than honda?

Also while in around there would it be worthwhile changing the front ARB to a JDM one? Does this make a difference to the handling as I plan a FRSU soon.

Thanks in advance

JDM Front ARB only required if changing to aftermarket manifold. No increased stiffness when compared to UKDM to my knowledge.

Try Hendyshop on here, I think he quoted me £90 for genuine honda top mounts.

Get the Honda ones and avoid eBay specials.

I've had some cheapo unipart ones on for over a year now, with no troubles.

TDI North advised that there's not much difference.

Where did you get them from? Is there much difference in price?
