Much to my relief , my car passed its MOT this morning . On the Advisory Notice were these items :

 

001 Nearside rear Intermediate drop arm deformed but serviceable

002 Offside " " " " " "

 

So , I have three questions :

What exactly are they ?

Where can I get them ?

Any idea of cost ?

 

Thanks peeps

are they on about the main suspention arm??

It sounds like the drop links from the rear antiroll bar to the lower arm.

The rubber bushes do split, as luck would have it they are quite cheap just a couple of pounds each and easy to replace.

Yep, although I would also add that quite often the droplinks are seized and can snap when removed so its worth getting hold of a set of complete replacement droplinks rather than just the bushes.

Many thanks , Jeff and Legrath :bow::bow:

Gibster , what car were you in ? I was parked in Hornton Street W8 for the last few days .
