hi maybe replace the drop links if their original as they may be knackered!check to see how much movement is in the ball joint.

[vonbeck]

ta, have you got the part number, and as always how much are they and from where

[Ross]

Rear droplinks at eurocar parts. GSF only do the fronts, unfortunately, at £19... think the rears set me back £55/pair! But still cheaper than the stealer, where i think they were £35 each.

No probs, eurocarparts are not OEM though.

make sure you give the bolts a good soaking the night before with some diesel or sumthing similar otherwise they will probably snap like carrots then you have to fook about re drilling and tapping them, i speak from personal experiance (cough azman)
