Stronger bushes and ball joints Thumbs Up

In theory at least, they should last longer than the D3 offerings, as well as offering a little better handling/control

Not in my opinion. The RRS parts are the best option.

I had All Makes on mine, lasted 18 months before the knocking started. Changed them last weekend for new arms. 2 years from the parts in the end which is frankly shocking for £230 of parts.

I went for RRS ones from my local dealer, i got 20% off the price of them and new bolts etc.

I would go RRS, the ride and handling is far better than before and they fitted in nicely with no issues.

Make sure you copper slip the bolts so they come out easily in the future.
The old bolts were copper slipped so came out easily and i've copper slipped the new ones. Thumbs Up

Rest well old friend, your work is done.
