Post King Pins
Is there a significant difference in the quality of king pins sold by ecas and 2 2cv city?
Looking to do both on a budget and the pair from city are 14 quid cheaper.

Price and quality follow each other. You get what you pay for. Ecas pins are top quality and long lasting IF you remember to grease them every 1000 km. The shit reproduction pin will even have play in them right after installation. The top bush is badly made. Unless you don't mind replacing pins often ruining the arms at the same time, get the cheaper pins.
