fitted these to my 1986 '44 turbo.

the old ones were shot. The threaded part which goes through the spring plate mount fell off the rubber it was supposed to be bonded to. The lads at the club meet liked them, but thought they would make the ride very harse - they haven't - so I'm chuffed. A guy I know has a CNC shop and I gave him my old one as a template to make these.
discount for club members - you can have them for £100 per pair (saves ebay fees, and saves you money) + p+p (quite happy for you to pick up). If interested, or want to know more / see more photo's e-mail me: mark23rhodes23@hotmail.com

You can get them from the states, but they are expensive.

I had saw these and was thinking about a set during my suspension refresh. Got a photo of them on the car?

A lot of money for a lump of Ali' with a bolt through it. If it was for a Ford Fiesta it would be £20. Come on £105 for that isn't on. Even for a pair. You don't need a CNC to produce that.

Where abouts do these fit on the car, being stupid i cannot quite fathom it out, looks like a well made bit of kit though !
Sub £100 would be better we are not loaded just because our cars have a very desireable badge on the nose, quite the contrary as they can be moneypits !

they fit in the rear wheel arch, just infront of the central point of the wheel.
the aluminium swing/ spring arm which comes off the torsion bar tube (4x 17mm bolts going through it) and attaches to the chassis.

will get a photo of it on my car tonight hopefully

cheers

current exchange rate is currently about $1.47 to the £
so roughly $280 equates to roughly: £190 sterling for effectively the same thing

on ebay yet again!
managed to get the price down after selling a couple of pairs - I can do them for £100 all in for tipec members :D - it saves me ebay fees which I can then pass onto you
Just drop me a line through tipec
I can also provide you with a fitting guide if you need

thanks
