Default Drop Links Replacing/ Price?

Had scoob a couple of months, MY95 WRX with 97k.

Where I live have to go over bloody speed bumps all the time.

Car has developed a knocking which I can only hear when going over the speedbumps - not sure whether front or rear but normally sounds like rear.

After doing a search possibly the rear drop links need replacing?

If so any idea how much this would cost - parts and fitting?

Thanks,

Ian.

Fit em yourself! Only takes 10 minutes. They cost about £40 from Demon Tweeks.

Oh, ok - whats involved with fitting? 10mins - I take it you don't need axle stands or whatever then?

lie under the car, take out bolts and replace links with new ones and new bolts, smear grease over new bushes and drive away

You can change them with the car on the deck. I have pics on my website to show you what to look for. I chose the easy life and stuck the car up on some ramps.
