Default Amazon Saloon Torque Rods (up to 66)

Hello, I'm looking for two torque rods. Mine have corrosion where the bushes to the axle sit.

I'm interested in anything that is sound, cosmetic condition is not an issue and i'm re-bushing

What year are you talking ? Can you clarify if its the early type that wrap around the axle or the later ones ?

At £66 each new from Brookhouse and considering they don't last forever, I wouldn't bother with second hand myself!

as they rust from the inside out new is the best way to go if in doubt.

New ones are not all that expensive
