Default Ebay 968 caster blocks

Anybody try these? Do they work well and hold up?

They look the same as the OE 968 parts at half the price.

They look decent Marc, they look exactly like the ones on my car. Who knows, maybe those are the same ones on my car, the PO either lied or didn't know what he was talking about regarding my car, I would try them.

I have used mine (hard) on a track car and they're holding up fine, so far. One was harder to put on than the other, though, so there may be some variability between pieces.

I have a set of them but opted for OEM, just wasn't too confident.

What is different if you have the 2 side by side.

Just put them on my 86. Mine needed some sanding/grease to get over the eccenttric bolt. Other then that they are fine

I have had those on my car for 4000 miles. No problems with them at all. I drive the car pretty hard on the street (mountain switchbacks). I think they are well worth the price.
