850 Drop links

[Johnny5]

Ello chaps and chapasses! hehehe

Anyone know if these will fit the 850 T5?

They look plastic, most of the others appear to be metal????

Maybe thats why they cheap?

Hmmm not sure :confused:

Ive never seen a plastic drop link for an 850, ive seen them on vauxhalls and the like and they seem to be ok.

Id get a lot of info on these before buying or fitting ;)

Neither PFS or NORDIC have them listed, all metal ones :B_thumb:

They are half the price of pattern ones from my tame motor factor ....and they do look plastic!! Wouldn't be me matey....:shifty:

Just don't like the look of those - such a significant part of the handling it isn't worth economising.

They remind me of the supports for the drawers in my bedroom cabinet but with balljoints.......:yikes:

I think RUFE maybe able to help on this one TBH, Id rather get metal ones, dont think i wanna trust plastic ones!
