Title: aftermarket drop link bushes
Post by: jamie16v on 23 May 2011, 21:01

anybody used the likes of powerflex drop link bushes?... my standards are well and truly in dangerous condition...
not knocking but loads of play causing major oversteer combined with whiteline rear arb.
what are you using and how do you find them?.. links, prices and performances ect
cheers, jamie.
