I replaced the ones on my Blob with solid items from CDF Racing. Your car will have the same alloy arms as the Blob I presume

Hi Shawn,

Avoid the rose-jointed items they are not suitable for our climate, and are noisy outside of motorsport use...

Mine are short straight poly-bushed Whiteline items, KLC32 IIRC

HTH

P.S. £100 now

One of the cheaper brands had problems with the poly-bushes pulling out of the alloy link ? ? ? ?
