W2TKY Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 My rear drop links where an advisory on last years MOT, on the Caterham website they have two listed, am I correct in saying I need the metric ones listed? Car is a 2007 R400D Superlight. Thanks Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David_Long Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Yes, but the new ones will probably be just as bad. They are not a tight fitting ball joint MOT people are expecting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W2TKY Posted January 23, 2021 Author Share Posted January 23, 2021 Oh right ok, the near side seems better than the off. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Vine Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Yes, metric. There's a maintenance guide here.It's cheaper to replace just the rod ends -- either the ones from CC, or (better IMO) ones from McGill Motorsport. JV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Line Components Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Just replace the rod ends 72118… they suit imperial and metric cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
