    Default Rose Jointed Drop-Links



    I have managed to sort a group buy from RnD Motorsport for their Rose Jointed Front Drop Links.

    Droplinks are a common source of an annoying suspension knock. These drop links take them to another level of quality and use a Rose Jointed design instead of the standard ball joint type.

    They retail at £75 (for a pair) delivered to your door. However RnD are prepared to supply these for £65 delivered to you for up to 15 sets in the Group Buy. If we get more than 15 interested members they are hoping they can supply them for £60 (waiting confirmation of this)







    These are available for Vectra C/Signum/Astra G/Astra H/Corsa C and Corsa D. If you don't want them for your Vectra C or Signum, please state what car in your reply.

    These are intended as a direct replacement for the standard plastic or steel items, that all too often fail.

    They feature;
    48 Kn rated, ultra high strength, maintenance free spherical rod ends
    6082-T6 Anodized Aluminium bodies
    Full cover dust boots
    Custom CNC machined high tensile wide angle zinc plated spacers
    Zinc plated high tensile bolts and nylon lock nuts (no more rounding/cutting old ones off!)

    They can be adjusted in length to take out any twist in your anti roll bar or its mountings.
    Full cover dust boots stop the usual rapid wear of the rod ends, which are easily and cheaply replaceable when they do eventually go. We supply spares, but any similar rod ends can be used, they are a standard size.
    Also much less flexible than the standard item so tighten up the front end nicely, enabling a more rapid turn in and a more crisp response at the limit.
    Customers feedback and our testing show them to make a nice difference to steering feel.
    A brilliant way to compliment any uprated suspension set up.

    Please note, in order to maintain maximum angular movement the rod ends must be set square to each other when adjusted or replaced.

    Sold in pairs.

    Postage is via Royal Mail Recorded.
    When we get the names together RnD will supply a discount code, so you can order them directly from them.

    was wondering this too

    do they come pre assembled - I get that there is some leeway with the joint, just wondering if we put them together, do they come as delivered as the 1st or 2nd pic?

    Yes, the Vec C units are 355mm between centres standard, they will adjust from about 335 upto 360mm

    No, they are supplied in bits and you build them up to the required length.
