well a while ago i decided to change me strut tops and bearings while i changed me front struts. turned out the ones i got (strut tops) were **** and flogged out withing less then a week. so then i got some other brand ones (still rubber) and they lasted up untill bout a week ago as today i finally deiced to find out why me car wasn't handling as good as it used to yep sure enogh the left one has totally come apart (****ed) again...however teh right one is still half decent bt not the best.
now in allot of my posts about neoprene i say i wouldnt use it for teh strut tops however i have had enough of the rubber ones flogging out so i lashed out the $$$ and got teh neoprene strut tops and bearings for it and waiting for then to come in as the shop didnt have any in stock
why the **** do they keep breaking? i only had this car for about 7-8 months now and this has happened 3 times...also car is lowerd bt only on lows and yeh all other suspension bushings and tie rods, ball joisnts are brand new
i do drive it hard and take corners pretty hard but only lately as when it happened teh first time i drove teh car pretty granny style
cheers
