Alternative to Mazda droplinks

Before the usual calls about using the search facility start I have been through it without success. Getting the front links is not a problem £9.50 each (Galaxy), finding an alternative to the rears is proving more difficult, any help very much appreciated.

Think that's the wrong way round ethisbog. The fronts are from a vauxhall and the rear from a galaxy. I've done my fronts and backs within the last 6 months and got both off ebay. The front being cheaper than the back ones strangely even though there's nowt to the back ones.

You might be right but everything I have read, and the motor factors I have been in, the galaxy does not have rear drop links. Are you sure with your front Vauxhall, rear Galaxy. If so what model are the vauxhall links off.

No I wasn't sure about the galaxy links either. I read on here about them but I couldn't find anything like them in the Pearl Products catalogue, so I bottled it and bought the real McCoy off ebay. Not at one of the Mazda traders though - far too expensive. I paid about 30 quid inc. postage. he's not got any on at present though. I'll try and find the seller and you can keep an eye for more coming up.

For the front I bought these. There are some more on at the mo - item number 280121486308. They were a good price, good delivery and exactly the same as the ones that came off.

Seller's name "jake-the-must: carparts"
Front links are for a vauxhall vectra 95-01 BTW

Follow the link and You'll get the part number for the Ford alternative. You will need to replace them as a pair as they are marginally shorter. (about 1to 2 millimetres)
