kevinkay is on a distinguished road
I went to buy those $16 links at FCP, (stopped there as I happened to be in the area). The guy opened the boxes so I could see them - they didnt match, they were the same length and had the proper bends (left and right), but one had heftier ball joints than the other side?? Salesman could not explain it, they did not match the photo on the website but stock numbers matched. Asked if we could compare them to the Lemforder which had both sides with the same bigger joint.
Bought the Lemforders

Good to know, thank you. I ususally assume that I get what I pay for. I need to get a pair and those were tempting me.
