think i asked this before, but im after some track rod ends and ball joints, ordered some off www.autovaux.co.uk but they seem to not exist anymore... wierd? so anyone else know a good supplier? eurocarparts and GSF work for the audi, but the nova obviously needs something a little more... british. (unfortunalty GSF and ECP dont do Opel bits - bugger) thanks for your help. online would be good, i could check out prices then and compare to the yokel shop.

cheers,

come on someone must have done these bits? did on the audi - its a changed car! ball joints, track rod ends, top mounts, and shocks, no play in the steering AT ALL, brilliant feedback, less vibration at high speeds, in fact VERY little at all. confidence to REALLY chuck it around corners now.

so, any suggestions?

I have just tried that link and it took me straight to their site, i rang them not long back about some prices and all seemed ok :?

I normally just use GMF in parkend for things like balljoints and track rod ends. They last well enough for the abuse i give them, never had to change any due to wear and tear etc, just change things like that when i am working in that area of the car.

as far as i know, as you said anton wont beat them, and everytime i have nipped down they have had them in stock ready to go (although a call prob wouldnt hurt anyway)
