Noisy Drop Link (Again)

OlympicLiftingPaulF · Thursday at 16:25

Hi, 6 months ago I replaced both front

Anti Roll Bar Drop Links on my 2005 TD4.
Both have since started knocking again. I didn't buy cheap ones and I'm not off-roading in it.

Is there anything else that could be causing these to go please? The original ones lasted many years more.

Thanks, Paul

Hi

Normal roads with speed bumps and holes are a nightmare. You can break something easily.

The suspension act as a whole, new drop links with old suspension parts, will not last that much.

I think they are a service item now so I'd go for the cheaper ones.

Hi, use the Meyle HD ones or genuine.

It's pot luck. We've had expensive one fail, and cheap brands that last . . . . . Main problem I've found with the cheaper brands, is badly made hex on the end of the thread to hold the spindle when fitting them.
