[Mk2] [Turbo] grr anti roll bar links

Post by Olls »

Did anyone else find their anti roll bar link arms a right pain in the ass to remove ? had to grind the thread on one end as some plank had rounded the allenkey hole in the nut , and the rest of nuts are so tight its unreal !

The allen key slot is a pretty bad design, there are some you can buy where you use a spanner to hold the ball joint which makes it a hell of a lot easier, especially considering how rusty these things get.

I have just put together a few sets of super strong, pre-lubed, adjustable stainless steel droplinks....gonna put them on here for sale later...they are very similar rosejoints to Tein...which use the 12mm spanner lug and an M10 stainless nut...very easy to work with and maintenance free.
