    In regards to tie rods , balls joints and other suspension parts seems to be a lot on ebay and variation in prices, any reccommendation as to best quality/prices?? are the items supplied by Rares as good as you will get in regards price and quality, I imagine these are all manufactured in China etc.

    99.9% of our hard suspension parts are Roadsafe brand, where roadsafe get them from im not sure, i beleive alot of there parts are 555 parts rebranded but im not certain of that. some stuff is also wasp brand.

    our suspension rubbers can be a mix or ours or mackay depending on the part and its popularity

    just to let you know

    Yep, I got the whole kit, about eight million parts from memory. The quality looks good but the ute isn't on the road yet so I don't know for sure.
    Actually I have bought a bit of stuff of them and everything looks OK.
    I bought a gearbox input shaft, the front end kit and some trim stuff I think, yes it was their rubber kit.
