Sorry Bob

I got the Drop Links but did I pay you for these? and from the diagram in the service manual I cannot see what it is - actually - I am probably being dim

cheers

These are the top links that hold the top of the hub carrier part number A100D0096J
If you still have the channel section one they do rust!

drum roll

Result :clap:

I have managed to source the bushes as a standard part so no tooling costs, just waiting on the company to get back to me with a price and to preempt any sugestions on the rubber hardness they will be made to the same specification as the originals.

Now have a price on the bushes £17.50 each or £70.00 a set still cheaper if you go by SJ prices they would be £113.47 for a set of 4 + delivery.
prices include VAT at 20% the new rate which come in on Jan 4th 2011.

That will make a pair of top links including the bushes (fitted in the links) £146.00

A problem may be the lead time as they are quoting 14 weeks but that may be cover the old gluteus maximus.
I have asked them to look at the costings to see if they can get them down along with the lead times.

If I am to place an order for these I will need your money as it stands 16 sets = £1120.00

Hi Bob, I paid £84 on 7th April 2010.

Remaining £62 just e-transferred to you so should be in your account.

A sincere thanks for this, the work you do is fantastic.
