Thanks for the responses, I've ordered a pair of Mehle HD - with VAT and the carriage etc. they come to me at £24 each.
Please note I updated my original post (regarding the 'life' from this last pair of links off DMGRS who I do support whenever possible) but it was December 2016 @146K when I replaced both front struts and the drop links (again as MOT failures in that November) with DMGRS components
- the O/S strut was advised as 'misting' in December 2020 @165K
- the O/S strut "serious leak" and the N/S drop link "...linkage ball joint likely to become detached" both fails yesterday @167K
Matt agreed to replace the strut FOC last year so I have it ready to fit but approx. 20K for both components ain't good (particularly the strut) and I don't attempt to do them myself so it's labour costs on top.
Anyone know who supplied the MGR production line with drop links?
Should I give both drop links some extra grease, if so what grease must I use?
