I know you say they weren't cheap, but I couldn't sort out just the joints for £80 by the time you're done with inserts, studs and boots, never mind the links.
I made some with the cheap joints and no boots that needed maintenance to start with, nothing but hassle as no matter what people say, they never clean and maintain them like they require...by contrast the booted and tracable joints I ran on my wishbones lasted 3-4 years, in fact, they were still good as new when I sold 'em.
what really bites me rippthrough, is that they have only just say lasted a year and they have done f*ck all miles, in fact the car has only done say 2k miles, as it was off the road with a f*cked wheel bearing for a few months.
also I don't give the HDi any shite at all. For 80 quid you would least expect them to last longer than that.
