Anyone have problems with Bavauto suspension parts

[tophertii]

Not trying to slam a vendor here. Just trying to avoid the reoccurance of a problem.

Less than a year ago I purchase two control arms, two offset urethan control arm bushings and two sway bar end links from Bavauto. When ever I have the car on jackstands or ramps I take the time to look things over. A couple of nights ago I was trying to solve a coolant leak issue. I looked over at my 10 month old control arms and notice the ball joint boots at the hub were toast, two separate pieces one top and on bottom. I then then at the sway bar end link, boot severly cracked, will fail soon. Other side same story.

Bavauto said that if I order new parts and send back the old they will credit my account.....Ok but getting these parts on and off was a pain in the ass and cost money.

I'm going to order the replacement parts but I want to know what manufacturers make OEM quality replacements. redoing my control arms once a year is not my idea of fun.

thnx

I think Lemforder made the stock control arms.

I have never had a problem with their products, but the only suspension piece fromm them that I have are the urethane RSMs, which are great so far.
