People are on the look out for 2nd hand shock linkages. I stupidly stripped down a perfectly good linkage to get powdercoated and im now looking in the region of £100 to get all new bushes/seals/bearings for it!!!

I tried to get the bearings at a local supplier they were pritty much the same price at simply bearings of £17 each and there is two of them. Don't have the codes though, I measured the bearing I took out.

Yeah you have to look around. The guy at the place I went to was shocked at the price for a little needle roller bearing cause they are normally dealing with generic stuff that goes in everything.

These ones only have one or two uses. So obviously it's just part of a well constructed scam from the source as they know you have absouloutly no other option.
