Not sure who the Manufacturer is, I * think * they come out of either China or India. I've used their Trailing Arm Pins and a few other parts, while some have complained about them, I found their parts quite good, however, any bearings they have in kits (trailing arms, front arms etc) are not good (poor) quality, I junk them and use either UK and Japanese bearings.

I found that the quality is good, fitted a Timken front wheel bearing and that lasted a few months. After that I fitted a "Classic" bearing and that one i still OK after a few years. Ball joints are good as well.

Look at Minispares, most of their more expensive versions of products are up to it.

I am not fully sure what you're saying. Are you saying that minispares expensive is the classic brand and therefore good quality or are you saying you would rather buy minispares expensive than the classic brand as you know the minispares are good quality.
