Yup just fitted them. Will give feed back after i have driven up north later.

Just so you know they are the EXACT same product as the neuspeed ones. Same size, design, shape, weight etc. Neuspeed are £154 plus postage. These were £66 Delivered using next day delivery.

Well fitted them.

What should have been a straight forwards 30min job turned out to be a 3 hour Epic

Used these instructions. No probs there

Drop Link Instructions

The M6 bit you need though. When i used that on the bolt that is attached to the Chassis on both sides the ends just crumbled away leaving me with nothing to actually insert the bit too :@ :@ :@

So using a combination of a Drill, Hack Saw, Grips, Hammer and sheer brute force i managed to get the bolt off without damaging anything other than the bolt itself. :swear: :swear:

I even soaked both bolts with WD40 and left them for 10mins just to make it easier.

What a stupid setup. Basically the ends have corroded due to road grime etc. So if you are going to install them yourself be prepared for it to not be so straight forwards :swear:

All done now though :) :)

Sorry for being a doofus, but what do they do?

The standard drop links are very flexible. These just tighten things up and transfer more of the body roll to the arb hence stiffening the car a bit more when cornering.

Carl,

Sorry to go off topic but I was curious after we spoke at the Briskoda RR day as to how you got on with your map and whatever it was that was holding the car back. Any update?

No mate. To be honest i have given up chasing the problem. I have spent over £1k trying to fix it. The car will soon enough have a different set of lungs and maybe even a diff ;)

Very nice :thumbup: ...although they aren't cheap fixes either! Looked at the diff myself after talking to Robin at the RR Day but a bit out of my league for the mo'
