Default FCP Groton - Control Arms

Has anyone used FCP Groton control arms? They are a lot cheaper than my mechanic quoted, but are they good?



Any help appreciated.<ul><li><a href="http://cgi.ebay.ca/Audi-A4-A6-Allroad-VW-Passat-Upper-Control-Arm-Arms-KIT_W0QQitemZ250007954327QQihZ015QQcategoryZ33583Q QrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem">http://cgi.ebay.ca/Audi-A4-A6-Allroad-VW-Passat-Upper-Control-Arm-Arms-KIT_W0QQitemZ2500079

Default Looks like they are a re-seller and not the manufacturer of those control arms.

That said I wouldn't buy them because you have no clue who did make them. Search the forum for "control arms" and you will find the recommend brands and places to buy them.

Default I replaced mine last time with some cheap ones (249$ full set) and they only lasted 18k miles now...

I am replacing them with the best money can buy, German Meyle brand "upgraded" 12 piece set with hardware. Blau has a very good price on these kits.
