Suspension - Nicks306 - 08-04-2015

Hello everyone

Replacing existing ta coilovers next week for bilstein b4s and eibach springs.
Now two things should i replace top mounts and bearings while im the there?
And when im turning left quite slow i get a knocking/cluncking nosie, any ideas what this could be? I am thinking driveshaft purely because of the noise.
Thanks in advance

for the sake of the money - iirc £40 for a pair of SKF bearings + topmount kit

just put new in, you'd be daft not to as you'll ave the trusts ...etc off

knocking / clunking could be CV joint - but also worth just checking to see if the intermediate bearing on the long driveshaft is done up tight - it passes through the lower engine mount - can also cause a racket on lefthanders

Probably worth replacing the droplinks at the same time, they're not expensive and can be a bugger to remove without cutting off!

Thats what i was thinking im in that area so might as well had
Wheres the best place to get a SKF kit from?
As for the noise thanks ill check both the cv and the bearing on the long driveshaft first. Oh and the droplinks, anything else while im there worth doing?

Clunking could also be the bushes on the wishbones couldn't it? Might be worth having a butchers at those too Wink
