07 hawkeye sti rear suspension knock
Hi all
Ive got the dreaded rear strut knock for the third time in 5 cars :( Im in need of the fix or second hand parts if anyone knows of someone doing this/them :) Thanks paul |
Split them, clean out old waxy grease and repack with marine grade thick grease. Job done. You can go further and add grease nipples etc
|
Thats one option im after but me doing it myself :S i dont think i could
I have limited knowledge with mechanics and no spring compressors :( |
The main issue is getting the strut split in two, the bottom nut usually needs cut off as its too badly corroded to remove without the insert spinning. Better off finding someone local capable to do it for you.

I've just done this mate. I ll PM you tomorrow with a few pointers:thumb:

Sucked it up and went to scoobyclinic today, they where going to regrease for me but said they where to far gone so had both rears replaced.
Tons better now, had car laser aligned to but rear camber is -3 so gotta go back and have camber bolts fitted to sort rear wheels out :( |
