Back in March/April I replaced:

- Lower Front control arms
- Sway Links
- Tie Rods

with MTC brand parts from ECS (not ecs fault) and here I was today replacing them AGAIN and it hasn't been 5/6 months (3,000 miles). I tried to cut corners by being cheap and I have learned my lesson. I purchased Febi control arms, Febi ball joints, Lemfoerder sways and tie rods and the difference is night and day. I will be sending back the old defective parts to ECS for a warranty claim because even though they are cheaply made parts, I don't think they should have deteriorated that fast.

I will also be replacing my front thrust arm bushings with Febi ones because I still have a slight shake when breaking from 60mph down and it is due to the PowerFlex poly bushings I have in there. I can live with the slight shake but my wife keeps nagging about it.

So do yourselves a favor and DO NOT PURCHASE MTC BRAND SUSPENSION PARTS. Spend more now and less in the long run.
