Is this kit any good?

[EJL]

Guys,

I'm planning on doing some maintenance over the winter and I was wondering if this kit is any good?

Why on earth would you need to change ALL of this? :?

Could be something crazy like your current ones are noticeably worn?

Seems a little cheap to me and I'm a bit wary of unbranded parts. Meyle HD is highly regarded on this forum but the kit will be around £220ish. I'd go for Lemforder if mine needed changing as they're the OEM supplier.

I bought cheap wishbones from ebay about 6 months ago. Just had my mot and they were knackered so replaced with lemfender.

Buy cheap, buy twice!

Lemforder is what my indie would use. Cheap is not always good, and you don't want to be changing all this more than once in many thousand miles. Steer clear of cheap springs too if you ever get the notion to change yours.

Lemforder or HD Meyle are the only two I would consider. I replaced mine with the full HD Meyle kit as they come highly recommended on here. Covered nearly 10000 miles on them so fair.

+1.
Lemforder gets my vote, used them on many occasions and have no complaints.

Is the HD Meyle kit much harder (suspension wise) than the original OEM parts?

Thanks guys!
