Thanks mate. How can you tell if the springs are no good? Theyre the original set so unsure if it'd be wise to transfer them onto a new strut.

Will it really be that big a difference with the V8 springs? Have you done it before?

Hi all, Ive got a VE SV6 2010 ute with about 250,000km. I bought it with about 80k on the clock with lowered suspension, refitted standard suspension so its about 170k old. im getting some front end rattling as well. mechanic replaced the sway bars at the front and now reckons the struts need...

To be honest it's been on some pretty bad roads and done fine. This one was real bad though! I should probably commit to a more suitable car but I can't be assed, the engine is still going strong

Nah not balanced - I was lucky enough to get them on. I guess I'll try find a matching rim or close fit to it, get it balanced and hope for the best.

Can you notice suspension damage when driving ? Tyres weren't fitted at the shop unfortunately

I seem to be unable to attach that kind of file, would I be able to email you? Cheers

From research the symptoms don't sound the same

Nasty grinding/rumbling sound coming from the front end whilst accelerating on a full lock. I get the same sound although a lot dimer straight after initial acceleration from idle going straight. the sound has been around for a while, funnily enough it came about immediately after I had my...
