Default Those with KW Clubsport or Competition please help

Can one of you please measure the length of your front swaybar end link for me please (hole centres will do).

My understanding is the factory swaybar links will not work with these kits and that a significantly shortened version is required.

Also anybody with a spare brand new set for sale or can get hold of one swiftly please let me know!!

Cheers

Tom

You need KW ones. http://www.kw-suspension.co.uk/ normally have them in stock. Something like 20-30 each.

I take it you mean the little black arms with a bearing on each end that link the strut to the wheel hub assembly?

You should get a pair of KW ones with the kit?

Try KW UK if you need a pair:

KW Automotive UK Ltd.
Willow Tree House
Bromley Green Road
Upper Ruckinge
Ashford Kent TN26 2EQ

Phone: 0870 990 7536

Default Quick Update.

I called KW UK this morning as planned hoping to speak with Richard but no answer (will try again shortly).
I also called K300 Performance and asked if they stock the needed items, again they said no stock and they'd only go through KW UK anyway. They are to call me back with prices & expected availability for both drop links & the needed top mounts. I will email you direct when I hear back from either.

I can say im not too impressed with KWs customer service so far or their efforts of stocking parts in the UK.

To be fair think you have just been unlucky, they have all been at the MPH show at earls court since Thursday and are heading back late last night this morning / unpacking etc etc .. so im sure someone will be able to help you this morning

Well I spoke to Luke Fri and he didn't seem to know much, infact everyone I've spoke to upto now cant give me a confirmed answer & I have tried calling KW UK a fair few time today to have a chat with Richard, I have been told they often dont reply to phone calls, not sure why but they are certainly loosing potential business. I will try a little later and let them recover from their weekend. Cheers Daza

P.s I hate posting on these damn iPhones, It never come sout how you want it! Always assumes you want it spelt wrong or reading backwards! Last one..
