steve @ 0 Posted January 17, 2007 I ve got a set of 264 which i'll be throwing in soon so going to change the followers as is recomended. I ve come across a guy on ebay who selling these very cheaply £65 for a set of 12 delivered!!!! Only question is will these be a load of balls? will be made by either luk or febi bilstein. Here's the link. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120075193307&ru=http%3A%2F%2Fsearch.ebay.co.uk%3A80%2Fsearch%2Fsearch.dll%3Fcgiurl%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fcgi.ebay.co.uk%252Fws%252F%26fkr%3D1%26from%3DR8%26satitle%3D120075193307%26category0%3D%26fvi%3D1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mic_VR 3 Posted January 17, 2007 They look ok, but could you not just refurb your own ones? Tappet Refurb Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steve @ 0 Posted January 17, 2007 I could do but after 150ki ts probably best to renew them. I ve always been advised when changing cams to renew the followers. Just wondered if anyone has used these makes before. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mic_VR 3 Posted January 17, 2007 Well i've never used these tappets but I have used luk stuff before and it's always been pretty good. I'll be interested to hear how you get on with them as I'm hoping to do something similar myself soon but I was just going to refurb mine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted January 18, 2007 Make sure you use INA tappets (it's stamped on the underside of the bucket) as they are the proper ones VW use. Ignore the Febi Bilstein packaging, they're usually always INA if bought from GSF, but get them to check first.... and that's where I'd get them from personally to be sure you're getting the right ones. Don't use tappets that have no markings at all as they're rubbish. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steve @ 0 Posted January 18, 2007 Ok cheers Kev. I'll ask the question. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
