Sick of using two jacks to get my cars up on stands, I made some jacking ramps out of 200 x 50 treated pine I had lying around.

Work a treat! Even gave them a coat of natural decking oil. :lol:

Had a knock I noticed last night on the rh front....... found...... broken swaybar link. NOT happy as theyre only 2 months old. Luckily Subaru Docklands spares were open today and had a set in stock albeit at an inflated price. Needed asap anyways. Links were not oem, so will be contacting supplier of broken link. :angry2:

Devo!

Should live in Adelaide, I have like 6 OEM links

$110 for the two new oem links isnt too bad for last minute.

About double what I could get them from the USA though.

Sounds about right, I paid like $40 each when I bought some a few years back (staff price

)

You could have disconnected both links and ordered some from the US. It wouldn't break anything, just feel a bit softer in corners.

Got any more pics of the ramps?

i like those, i might get my brother to knock me up a set for the car :wink:

great idea, yet again Mark

by **cruisn** » Tue Dec 25, 2012 7:55 am

I'll grab a few pics and measurements......

That's a shame Mark. You could have bought a Whiteline bar and HD links for the price of OEM Subaru links

by **bigBADbenny** » Tue Dec 25, 2012 2:59 pm

The debate continues to rage over the worthiness of upgraded links...
Some say a weak link saves other bits from damage. :-)

I get WL for 35% off. :wink:

I know what I can and cant get for what price. If you can get a WL swaybar and spherical links for $110, that would be something to behold indeed.

Kiks always stated that front sway bar links got in the way of hanging rear wheels on roundabouts
