Source for Trailing Arm Shafts

The time has come to start work on my pair of 205s, beginning with beam rebuilds. I see the Polish arm shafts are still going on Ebay, are these still the preferred choice given I cannot find a source for the Febi ones anymore?

27587771d90c29a3be0e1725a590660102bdebab

 

.. they where around 28.00 quid per piece ... and i got them even cheaper as i have 35% parts discount ... haven't tried to fit them yet so not sure if the dimensions are right .. but seems like decent made part , i mean how wrong can it be for an piece of tubing ?!

Count the number of different diameter steps in it, the length of each step, not to mention the internal machining at each end.

 

I would buy one just to compare one, and if all was well get some more.

Shop around. Really good quality out there, but price reflects. Genuine obviously the best but sometimes peoples budget wont stretch.
