thanks fred

front tyres are due, might aswell put some new topmounts in. the original ones are a bit worn.

Bear in mind that includes the bearing and the rubber mount that goes inside the suspension turret.

oh so you get the whole kit then. thats cool. could do with replacing.
cant believe they call that thing inside it a bearing tho. lol

Thought Id mention it as a lot of people think the mount is just the top bit you see. The bit that wears is all the stuff underneath that attached to the strut.

The bearing things are crap and too small imo.

yeah, i discovered that the main part that wears out is the part under the strut when my sportlines were fitted. should have changed them then but i didnt think.
had my rear shocks changed today, i was supprised at how much the top mount (underneath the strut part) was worn too!
cheers for the info
