jimalime Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 I have a mk2 2006 1.6 focus, going over small potholes on the left side the car would rattle and shake for a second, I looked up online and decided to replace the sway bar links, life happened meaning they've been sitting for 3 weeks only just been taken out the package to be fitted, only to find that the new set are significantly smaller . . . Is the size important? Which new ones do I order? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomsFocus Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Yes the size is important. Where did you get the new set from? I've never seen a set with grease nipples on, are they uprated and shorter for lowered cars or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimalime Posted October 29, 2016 Author Share Posted October 29, 2016 It's a moog k80066 from the US would the US cars use different parts maybe? There not sold as for lowered cars, its marketed as a problem solver as it's more robust than stock, when I was researching I found this was mentioned in a lot of places, probably should have checked they weren't all US sites 🙈 (could anyone possibly link me to a decent pair that will fit? ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JW1982 Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Our European Focus MK2/MK2.5 is never sold in the USA. The USA Focus MK2 is basically just a further development/facelift of the focus MK1.5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
