Default Drop links...

I posted this on another board and want to see if anyone on this board has some comments.

I've heard that some Agency Power drop links have actually failed, but I don't have any details. Does anyone have more info on this? Are there any other drop link failures stories w/the other makers (Tarett and TRG)?

trg are much thicker adjustment bolts, I know that thread from 6speed and that person snapped his AP DL 6 times and finally moved to TRG and has held up ever since install, I bought the trg and no issues with my H&R... they are pricey though

I've broken one of my TRG ones twice. I believe is more of a setup issue than the brand. My mechanic changed the length and position a bit and i have been fine since.

I have Agency Power drop links. Don't buy them.

One of them broke and seller send me the replacement but it takes time to replace it. They also make noise.

Thanks for the input everyone. I'm deciding between TRG and Tarett now.
