I can't see why the seller would offer the warranty without the backing of Meyle.

I fitted Meyle links all round over two years ago now. I have just disconnected and refitted the front ones after I removed the gearbox. All are in good condition and look like they will last a few years yet.

Parts just arrived. Now need a nice calm dry day to swap them over

Remember, BOTH front wheels have to be off the ground at the same time.

I just lifted the control arm with a jack - no problem.

...because the ARB will be under torsional load if one side is on the ground and the other in the air. Safest and easiest to do both in the air or on the ground.

In an ideal world yes. But i dont have the space or the means to raise both sides at the same time and ive never had a problem doing one side at a time.
