My Meyle HD ones failed within 6 months but they stressed that there is no known fault and replaced free of charge so i may of had a bad batch. I know others that have had them for years with good results.

Well personally i love mine and most who buy them do but as i said, ive just sent mine back under warranty after 6 months for replacements
THey do have a 4 year warranty though so i think i must of just been unlucky!

I got some Vibra-tek ones but at £114, not cheap!
You could get the roller bearing ones from Lynx power engineering, but they are £200 including the front bushes. Should outlast any 306 if you keep up to the lubrication!!

That's because it's just s link to their homepage. You do actually have to look your self for the parts lol. But if they are not on there, give them a ring. I know they do them as they are the UK distributors of Meyle parts.
