what type is it? Length?

Even if you buy a new actuator you will NOT get a new arm supplied

i ask myself these questions when somethin breaks
1. how do i fix it
2. will it work
if the answer is yes then i dont look for anything more complicated than a solution to the problem, you carry on your search and wait for days for your part hoping its the correct one, i would have the car back on the road in 20 minutes for Ł3 cowboy???? nah, just sensible mate it works and lasts as good as anything else so why try to make it more dificult

I agree to an extent with the strut brace. Broke it, fit it to get back to HQ, then replace broken/fixed item with new/second hand working item

Job done
