Default Drop links

Having been told my drop links need replacing on my 1999 UK turbo I have looked at a few options alloy whiteline and alloy powerflex being the two best looking ones.
But the bush on the whiteline seems to be alot softer than the powerflex does anyone know if this better for a road car by reducing vibration and do they queek like other poly/alloy links?

Zero probs on my car too. Typical Whiteline stuff, fit and forget.
Mine are the steel non-bling ones and i race on mine as well as road.

Good stuff IMHO based on experience.

Powerflex do some replacement bushes for the stock links for that stealth effect (and insurance friendly...)

I originally used the Whiteline "bent wire" type and were not totally convinced by them as, when jacked, there was a gap, albeit small, between the polybush and the "wire" I'd recommend you get the alloy type.
Have a word with Cusco kid!

Thumbs up

Thankyou for the advice, I think whiteline is the way to go when I get it 4 wheel laser tracked.
