Was changing my front brake pads on saturday and found my passenger side droplink had come apart.

I removed it and put it back together but I don't think it will last long.

Should I replace both sides as a precaution or just the one thats failed?

Anyone bought any of ebay? Who sells them for a good price?

Might as well do both at the same time to be honest, it's easily done in an afternoon and sods law says the other one goes the following week if you don't.

Yeah that's pretty much my thinking.

Takes longer to jack up and remove the wheel than it does to replace the droplink.

Broke one of mine a few years ago, fitted a second hand one just to the damaged side, both been fine ever since.

Standard OE ones are cheap enough and you may aswell change both. Have a look at the D bushes as well.

D bushes?

Any idea how much OE ones are?

Bushes on the ARB.
On my Type R they were knackered possibly due to my droplinks being knackered causing side to side movement.

Can tell you the price for OEM droplinks and OEM D bushes tomorrow (hopefully) as these are both being changed


£51 for pair of droplinks
£17.94 for pair of D bushes
