there is something somewhere that you have not tightend up enough, jack the car up and check every single nut and bolt is tight that you have taken off.

Well Darren @ TM-Developments did the work, so i just hope he tightened up the bits after lol. Im sure he did, and hope its just some bushes that need replacing as Dave said above.

lewis bring it round mate i'll have a look at it.

dont start buying things willy nilly without finding the true fault.

it might just the anti roll bar knocking.

also ideally you should get the tracking checked, as the alk is supposed to alter the tracking.

How much are a new set of droplinks? Mine look pretty worn too.

the links very rarely need replacing.

if anything needs replacing, it is usually just the rubbers on the link, and these can be bought from a dealer, i cant remember the price as it was a year ago i bought it.

ok mate cheers. Darren said that the bushes are worn & they dont cost much from whiteline etc..

I didnt know about the tracking bit though :(

What I meant was that the WL drop link bushes do not fit with the stock ARB.

I only need the bushes, is that what the drop link ones are?

Could be either 11 the ARB bushing or 12 the drop link bushing...
Just moving the ARB a bit could sort it.

yeah we'll see lewis.

as i said let me look at it first before you started spending money you dont need to.

the whiteline bushes also as far as i know dont fit the stock links.

does it kinda creak too? my money is on the front bolt on the lower arms, either not tight enough or stripped the thread. if that is loose it makes one hell of a row!!
