Febi control arms?

[generik777]

So I had my Bilstein sport shocks put in today & when they went to align it afterwards they noticed I needed a new front right upper forward control arm. I guess the ball joint was messed up. Anyways I made my way over to ECS and noticed they have both meyle and febi control arms, febi is cheaper by $10. Is their any big difference between the two, I did some searching here on the formus and someone said in one of the threads that febi was better than meyle but gave no reason why. So I figured I would just ask. And I love the new shocks by the way, Car rides soooo much nicer. Thanx much.

Febi is better than Meyle because its $10 cheaper. All kidding aside, these two are equal in quality, so if you can get one for cheaper then go for it.

yeah i made a thread about febi long time, no one really answered it

We've had nothing but failures with the Meyle arms we used to sell. We've since discontinued carrying them and offer only the Febi kits. Haven't had any issues since.

^ first definitive evidence I have heard about it. I think I may have even gotten my febi control arms from you 3 years ago. no problems with them.

That sucks, Cause I ended up ordering the meyle one through ECS since they didn't have the febi in stock. I looked on purems to but they were listed as Lemfoerder not febi. I hadn't heard of them before.
