Hi,

 

After the mounting of a new Z22se + M62 Eaton, engine works very well and now i have to refresh suspensions of my opel speedster with 115000 kilometers !

 

I have seen a complete refresh kit on eliseparts website. Is it a good kit ? Do you know other link with good parts ?

 

Thank you in advance for your help guys :)

I can do you all the ball joints etc for a “do it yourself” refresh. Or i can do a drive in drive out refresh also :)

I only use genuine delphi parts for balljoints l, track rods etc bushes you have a choice oem style ones which are meh but ok or polybush style ones which are ok but can squeak after a while or top notch rose jointed bearings from nitron.

No. Genuine ones are white/clear looking.

Roebush used to supply Seriously Lotus and ES Motorsport but have since lost their supplier.. These were hands down the best aftermarket oe replacement bush you could get and is a shame they are no longer available.

There are some chinese made ones which eliseparts are selling, they are “ok” but if you dont prep the bush and wishbone they can crack on the outer body when you fit them which is kinda less than ideal, they are have not being on the market very long so their quality over time hasnt been assessed yet..
