BSH Drop Links Issue
« on: May 28, 2011, 09:49:50 am »
Hi Guys.

I feel I should give you a little heads up about these drop links. Three forum members have now had issues with these clattering with makes them unusable (in my opinion) on a road car. I cannot tell you why they rattle because I don't know, i just know that they do.

OEM links are more good enough to use with stiffer ARBs, I found that out the hard way so you don't have to.  :happy2:

Heard about them doing this ages ago as I was going to buy some but steve @ statllers told me not to because of what you said

I had the BSH links on my car with no issues at all. They were used with white line ARBs ( I think )

I realise that you claim that these are without fault, but 3 forum member and statllers cant all be wrong.  :confused:

I have emailed dubtek about these as they are the BSH importer in the UK, not a peep out of BSH.

Just my input I also have the neuspeed ones fitted for over 18 months now without fault and they are spot on so if you want them go for neuspeed not bsh.

Neuspeed ones fitted also with no issues. I would have gone for the BSH ones if either BSH or Dubtek bothered to get back to me with a few questions I had. Thankfully their ignorance paid off  :signLOL:
If you have to ask why, you'll never understand.
