hi was checking under the front of my car to see if i could find a loose heatshield(i have a very annoying rattle!!!!) when i noticed the difference on the drivers side to the passenger side of these but not sure what they are

i thought the drivers side looked wrong if i need to get it fixed how much do you think it will cost?

thanks ian

yes there droplinks aright and they aren't that expensive about 30 each side fit them yourself handy to do hope it helps is there any play in them if not no need to change them

why does the drivers side at the top look not in line with the nut? or is that normal ? where can i get them from?

more likely to be your antiroll bar bushes letting it slide in its mounts

ianch

is it a serious problem though ? its not dangerous to drive like that is it? would that be causing the annoying rattle/knocking sound i have?

does the front end not feel abit loose when driving? lots of understeer?

ianch

does feel like that a bit

poly bushes only cost £12 a pair from most suppliers, easy to change, check the diameter of the bar first, thers a few sizes, think there 21mm though on a 95.

mines a late 94 so probably the same maybe i should do the bushes and the droplinks

check your calipers for the rattle first. 2pots are are on slides which wear causing them to rattle. had the problem on mine before i upgraded to 4pots. hold the caliper and see if you can rock it. there should be the minimal of play!

think your droplinks will be fine, but the rollbar bushes are suspect!

thanks for all the help i think ill get both of them changed while im at it

does anyone know what size bushes i need for the front antiroll bar?
