Bearmach 4 @ 94p = £3.76
Land Rover OEM 4 @ £5.90 = £23.60
Is that really £20 well spent?!?

a new damper, with bushes, made by bilstien, is £60....
Just realised that I am going to need to some circlip pliers. Seen recommendations for Knipex, presumably this set would cover all the jobs?: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Knipex-00...099893?hash=item1c42e09975:g:QGAAAOSwnLdWsdtU
Could I get away with one or two pairs and make a saving or do I need the 4?

I've struggled for years with one pair, keep promising myself a set of new ones, will just go for internal/external. So two pairs.
Looking at it I think I can get away with just internal ones, as I think I only need them for the UJs (anyone able to confirm if that's true). Any idea what size range will suit? They seem to go 8mm to 13mm, 12mm to 25mm, 19mm to 60mm. They also come bent or straight - again suggestions?

On mine, I tend to use the bent jawed circlip pliers the most, because that way you can see what you're doing better as your hand isn't in the way. I just bought a cheap set which seem perfectly adequate nearly 4 years later. I can only dream of premium brands like Knipex or Snap On.
