I'll be replacing a lot of rubber parts during the revival of Red Rover.
It's been nearly a decade since I was regularly ordering parts for the car, and am pleased to see the number of remanufactured parts and new suppliers entering the market in that time.
I am looking for real-world experience of the rubber components from various suppliers.
There are 6 that I can see:
Historically, Scott's was deemed to be the only place for quality, fit and durability, but delivery takes time and is expensive.
I heard Wins were stocking Scott's parts a few years ago, but this may no longer be the case?
COH Baines are the only supplier to state they manufacture in Britain at their own facilities. I can imagine much of the stock at the others may originate from COH Baines?
I am keen to source balljoint dust covers, deDion gaiters, filler cap gaiters and gearlever gaiters that will not split inside a year. Can anybody vouch for these components from any of the above?
Thanks
Michael
