spot the difference
bought this (see pic) and when i remove the old one realize they aren't the same even they say is for my vehicle (waiting for an answer tomorrow) so i will put back the old one waiting till it brake again.

Thats probably because your old one has been chopped and welded. -

The old ones are just bolts welded on to the end of the link, the new ones will be correct. The thread is the length it is to prevent over-compressing the bushes.Do you know that, with a 50 character limit, it'sComment

Yes. It's always a good idea to replace suspension and steering components in pairs anyway.Originally posted by budweiser View Postaha! great thanks, so i need to buy an other one for the other side to keep it equal. Do you know that, with a 50 character limit, it'sComment

I doubt the new one is correct. The originals do not have a spline on the ball joint stud. Check under the end of the rubber boot of the old one and I think you will find the stud is tapered and there will also be a hex hole in the end for an allen key.

Seem to remember when I got new ones from Milners they were different lengths than the originals.
Never got around to fitting them and just re-bushed the originalsComment
