ah yes this one:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/murano-prelud ... 3a6912b780

want to change to a nice rear sway/antiroll bar one day, like tanabe, whiteline or something

I'm sure I would need new droplinks if I came to change it right?

Thems the ones, and yes... definitely. If mine were anything to go by, you will right the droplinks off trying to remove them :lol:

Setting aside the words in his advert, how do you actually know they are OE quality? His adverts state OE spec, which just means that they will fit. :?

That said, I have the same balljoints and they appear OK, although the upper joints don't have the dot marker like OEM which make fitting to the correct alignment a little trickier.

I basically have a 20 reply email to and fro from each other with me querying every little detail including quality and fitment ;-)

Do the upper ball joints have the little dot marker?

If not, just don't do what I did and forget to mark the new ones as per the old. :roll:

On a totally related note, look what arrived in the post this morning.

Being I've not properly looked at them yet, I wasn't aware they needed lining up. You mean rotational?
