If the weight of the car is on the strut, you should be able to, yes.

might not help but i have a similar noise again only on corners got coilovers too and have swapped them round , and the noise is still on the same side.. My mate told me to plaster white grease all over the strut and as far up as i could get it, the noise did stop but slowley reapeared , also trying to solve this noise?

ah ok, thanks for this - i might a rediculous amount of WD40 on it to try and lubriate this up a bit.

but yes, it is interesting where i get NO noice at all when turning right, only ever left! weird... going to the scrapyard today, try and get this spacer

So, went to the scrapyard and got hold of a spacer...

Here's the result on the new mount - 3 images compiled:

1 - N/S which is fine
2 - O/S Dodgy WITH additional spacer from pug
3 - O/S Without additional spacer from pug - spacer sat next to it..

Went for a drive with the final image and was shocked! The turning CRUNKING has stopped, strangely, but over LARGE bumps and instant bangs on the strut, still get a small amount of clunking..

Also, to anyone that is still concerned :

went to get a valve replacement today - whilst the wheel was off i took a ganders, and the top of the strut is literally "resting" against the bear/mount - its not slotted in or anything - is this normal?? i really can't remember what my other sides look like
