    Adjustable drop links

    Has anyone that's purchased the adjustable drop links had to replace any of the rosejoints yet? Fairly sure at least one of mine needs swapping and I haven't the faintest idea what size to order.

    Manual bud, I managed to get a replacement M58 last time but tbh it's just not lasted at all.. more than a bit fed up of paying out for replacement parts that are already worn out and hence dont last.
