Piece of advice, don't use the Ford ones. They are soooo flexible with the rubbers and all. Destroys the whole idea of a 16mm thick roll-bar. They hardly coped with the S1/Orion 12mm one.

Get some ball jointed ones as hte newer cars use. The Mazda 626/MX6/Probe/Xedos rear drop links work well for one option.

I use the 626 front links as I use wishbones without the rear roll-bar mounting points with my 20mm rear roll-bar.

Then there are adjustable ones, but they are always more prone to dirt if they don't come with rubber boots

I am also fond of cars but always maintain them with a great care. I do most of my traveling by car.By looking at this high usage of cars fuel consumption is also a problem for increasing ratio of cars. But now there is no need to worry people who are spending a lot on fuel can now use a device in their cars which does not requires fuel to make the car run. So it is one of the very good option to save money on useless expenditure on fuels.

It's for the load compensators that seem to be removed. It's kind of part of the ABS system.
