Default New OEM Front Anti Roll Bar Links

I bought aftermarket front anti roll bar links six months and about 2000 miles later they are gone.

Look at the state there in ,they rattle and the rubber is completely waisted.

Gonna try Original Jag roll bars now part nr MNC2105AA

hope they last longer....

Any info on the aftermarket ones Roy? (for avoidance)

Sometimes the added cost of oem is worth it, false economy to buy cheap parts for our cars I guess...buy them once, buy the best.

Sorry to hear .......


Just so you know .....nothing German about Deutsche Parts. The warning are all over the MB forums ......

It is not worth buying aftermarket suspension parts or any of the major mounts. Do some searching and get the OE part at the best price available and fix it once.

Same goes for Uro parts -- unfortunately now sold by Autohaus ... just don't buy them -- especially the transmission electrical connection for the MB box.

This stuff is all coming from china and india (rubber)
