I fitted new drop links front and rear last November, all were genuine Delphi, sealed boxes with the hologram and correct markings on the arms, after 8 months and just 3,900 miles one of the front ones has failed, the upper joint is rattling like a good 'un.
I contacted the supplier who are replacing it "no questions asked" but when asked if they want the faulty one returned they just said no, throw it in the bin which tells me that they have seen a few of these going faulty. The one on the opposite side is still as tight as a drum as are the rear ones.
It just goes to show that even if you buy good items they can still go bad.

I know Mat at DMGRS offers a two year warranty on his drop links so anyone looking to change theirs soon should be looking there I reckon.
