Antirollbar links

[The Limey]

Hi All,

I've sheared the bolt off the top of my n/s antirollbar link, along with the top bush. Ford have told me that Daventry are out of stock...and germany and that it's on back order from the States!!!
Can anybody give me any advice on sourcing a replacement - new or used.
I've tried ebay & parts gateway with no luck.
I'd have thought that these things were replaced fairly regularly in the UK?

Many Thanks,

Ben.

You could try http://www.usautomotive.co.uk/store/Scripts/default.asp that is where I get some of my parts.

I must say Howard, you're a legend (you helped me out last year with the MAf sensor cleaning which saved me c£300).
I've just called them and they have 5 in stock - collecting tomorrow.

Thanks again.

Ben.

Glad to have helped. But I must be careful or I won't get through the door.

PS They can send them to you too on next day delivery.

I'm glad I remembered seeing this thread!
I've just ordered a Sway Bar link kit from USAutomotive having discovered that one of mine is missing! It's simply not there and there is no sign of it being there in the recent past...
Anyway, less than £25 inc P&P was a better result than I was expecting - I wonder how much Ford would want for one?

Cheers

I'd just like to add a comment about the stunning service from USAutomotive.
I placed the order by phone at approx 17.15 Thursday - the part was delivered Friday morning! Excellent!

Well it had to happen. Went over a large pothole (our roads are falling to pieces) and bang one of mine just snapped. The joys of motoring in the UK.
