Default Are these good parts?

Looking to do a timing belt job and all that goes along with it. Came across these on EBAY. Are the worth buying or are they just the same ole EBAY junk

IMHO, when attacking a timing belt service, I'd go OEM parts.

It may be a bit more cash, but you have the piece of mind that you're ordering and putting it the right parts.

Good Luck

Not all e-bay is junk, but before you get them, is the manufacture of the part good? I didn't really notice and then ask the seller to make sure they are 100% that manufacturer (if it's good). To many sellers show one item and you get a whole different make when it comes in. I did see he got 100% Positive feedback, so that's a plus. I've had a lot of luck on E-bay and a far share of crap too so now I check things out. Everyone needs to save $ now and again. lol

Ditto waht Mr Z said. This is not a project where "saving" a few bucks is worth the risk. This project is a complex enough to not want to chance non-OEM parts. Buy the factory parts at mitsubishiparts.com and sleep at night.
