just got in from the most enjoyable drive i have had for a long time after replacing my near side arb drop link today, seems to have cured all the knocking noises and has completly restored my faith in the car:clapping:

right to my questions, should drop links be replaced in pairs?, i ask this as the drop link i fitted today was from euro car parts and made by "Q Drive" and i noticed that it has a slightly smaller diameter than the one i stuggled to take off( rounded bottom nut and hex bit in the threaded stud ) , will the smaller diameter make any difference

cheers jim

they dont essentially have to be changed in pairs like, for instance, brake discs BUT i would expect if one side has gone the other side cant be far behind and i would change both at the same time as a matter of course.
they aint exactly expensive are they!
