Send a message to the guy on eBay he might do it. In fact I'd be interested as I'd buy a front and back set off him for some preventative maintenance

He has said he will do it for me. Seems very helpful!

Picture says a thousand words. Now I know which bracket you mean.
You'd have to cut the droplink to remove the top piece.
Then bolt it on new one.
Straight forward.

Sorry for the thread resurrection..James did this ebay guy come through with rear adjustable links? Did you have a lot of hassle making them fit?

I am swapping out my rear ARB, and am in the market for new rear adjustable links if they are 70 quid a pair..

Cheers lads

I was planning to getting round to updating this thread at some point. Infact, it's not long since I fitted them to the car.
Round one found the top bracket bolts too wide to go up into the hole in the arm (see photo - I didn't take any when they came back, no change other than smaller bolts at the top)
I returned them, and soon they were returned with an adaption (!) and they fit lovely.
Very easy to fit, takes 2 minutes each side. Good communication from Brian - no charge to get them reworked to fit the hole. And now he's done one set, the next ones will no doubt fit immediately!
Here's a photo of my little shiney bits :-)

Nice, thanks for the update!

So, you drilled out the top mounts off your old drop links, did that go OK?

I may well be in the market for some, but don't want to hang about. My old ARB is on the bench with the drop links seemingly forever attached. Bad combination of rusted together parts and rubber mountings that stop the usual remedies (heat, breaker bars, big f.o. hammers) from working..

You don't need a group buy. Buy from tarret.com, ready to go and cheap enough! Had them for 5years and happy!

I found the tarrett ones to be quite a lot more £. I sent my old ones, brackets and all, Brian cut them and attached them - all I had to do was take them off and put them back on.
Worth looking into methinks, if you're in the market for some. He was fairly quick too.

Great stuff. I have messaged him and have asked about a forum discount.
The Tarrett kit is nice but like you say lots more money especially when you add in shipping and tax, and its always nice to buy British when possible!

I understand the cost of shipping and taxes, I live in Canada, never the less, just bought a set of Tarett drop links, and it's a very well made and functional kit, can highly recommend. No affiliation...........

That includes the rubber monoball boots and everything as seen in the photo? That's a good deal. Can we get something worked out for the State-side folks?
