Ill say, he was a mate of a mates who is a mechanic and did the fit at his place after work while i waited. Only charged $50 so i thouhgt bugger it, not worth getting my hands dirty if its only gunna cost $50.....

But now because i was tryin to be cheap its cost me all this extra money and stuffin around.....

But at least the knock in the right hand front is gone...!!! But i still wasted money at fulcrum tryin to source that knock..... Just a big mess!:hit:

have a look at the swaybar link washers. on mine the 2 washers (with centering ring) were holding eachother about 4mm off the strut tab, creating a knock going over bumps.
if there is a centre ring on both inner washers, grind one down with a file.

Using nolathane sway bar mount bushes and fulcrum fitted this to the sway bar.


The ball joints, lower control arm bushes, tie rod ends and rack ends are all less then 18mths old.
