ippy Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 I replaced the rear droplinks but the ones I got (£7.50 ebay) don't seem to be man enough when doing one up I stripped the nut before I torqued it I was gonna torque it to 15Nm I think that's right, so my question is which are the best ones to get and where from? cos im going to change them again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stef123 Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 If it stripped before you even managed to get 15Nm on it then I wouldn't want to see how it looks in a months time lol. I generally stick to well known brands, so for example Lemforder make top quality parts - you will get them from Euro car parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iantt Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 I'm sure its more than 15nm, more like 40nm top nut and 70nm bottom, will check later 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madmole Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Why not get Whiteline uprated and adjustable ones (and do the sway bar while your down there)? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
