Default Front lower arms

On the quest to get the old girl back into a perfect car just bought two genuine DELPHI lower arms, £67.00 each delivered.... which I think is a very good price.... only a little more than the cheap trash from China! Next search now is for a star spoke alloy.......

So that is all new genuine rear suspension lower & upper arms, rear shocks, painted rear sub frame, discs & pads all round, new HP Fuel pump & filter, rear tank pump, front DELPHI lower arms etc etc...... Soon I will need new fuel tank straps and single starspoke alloy. Now I’m selling my Synergy I think a 160 remap on the cards

Hi Ian, off EBay... MR Auto I believe, as I bought both they came out at 67 each, I have asked them to confirm they definitely are Delphi, but it is spread all over the listing so they must be...

Have you received/fitted these yet ?


just curious as to how they are packaged etc.. ? do they appear to be "Genuine Delphi" ?


My 75 needs new Control Arms/Bushes....(i'm not able to do so at the minute but that's another story..) I'd seen various options for Quality Brand parts from Mister-Auto-Uk on ebay - I was a bit doubtful they'd be the Genuine Brand Parts listed tho, given the prices


maybe i'm too cynical

Hi Paul, I think they would be stretching what is genuinely legally acceptable if they are not... they specifically state that they are this brand and I have also emailed for them confirmation that they are. I only ordered them today so have a few days to wait...I am a buyer nowadays in real life so will have fun with them if they turn out not to be!!! I will keep u posted....

Will do Chris.
And for others that are interested I had a reply back from Supplier today and they said they are definitely 100% genuine Delphi arms so I would say quite a bargain....
