£12 + Vat, that's £225 a set. Autobush ones are £133 a set with VAT and are a very well made peice of kit. I know where my money would go / went :)

£12 is for the ball joints :)

To be honest, I'm looking to go with the Erlaton ones, as they look mean :) With some slightly softer springs I'll be flying next season.

Hmmmmm, I don't know. I've been getting a strange urge to replace all of the ball joints on the VX again, just because it was so much fun last time. Not. That's one tool I hope I'll never need again. :wacko:

3 more days and I can finally drive my VX again. :jump:

The Laser ball joint seperator from most motor factors is pants - not quite wide enough, get the Draper version (still only a few quid), much better :)


this one?

Well I just popped into AutoVaux to see if they had a few bits I needed and whilst there enquired about suspension parts prices. Balljoints £7.99 Inc VAT. 8 purchased :) they are the Delphi one TC163s and are meant to be the original fit (???). We shall see!

You are a top lad. thumbsup

Still need to get myself some bushes bought, as well as the track control arms. This credit card of mine is taking a right bashing at the moment. :(

Nah... I have a shitty limit on my CC, though I work full-time and am on a reasonable salary. However my missus who is a student with no job, though is looking, has of £20k worth of CC credit available. Go figure!

And to be honest this bill I am trying to keep out of 4figures, though in the last 12months I have hit that amount and then some! :rolleyes:
