In my honest opinion yes.If it ever came that I ran out of excellent or new genuine tubes, and only China versions available, then I won't be supplying refurbished axles anymore. Cheap for a reason. ________________________________________ FRESHLY RE-FURBISHED GTI BEAMSFITTING AND LOWERING AVAILABLE.

ive used a good few of aftermarket tubes, a tube is a tube its metal if the physical dimensions are right then it will be fine. I just dont trust the bearings and seals they come with. I ve got a good number of used genuine tubes or i can supply new aftermarket tubes. ________________________________________ 1990 205 gti6 supercharged |
