      Snowy, you make an extremeley good point there, I have had the struts out twice since I replaced the mounts, one to put in the springs and then again a couple of weeks ago...... Maybe when the new struts and shocks turn up I should just replace the bearings and mounts again, though by the feel of it, it feels like it's coming from lower down which leads me to believe it's the front rotating bush in the lower control arm, as shown in this pic...



      On another note, aside from the squeeking (I forgot to grease up the bushes!) the new urethane sway bar end link bushes are phenominal!! Coupled with the rear swaybar on it's second stiffest setting, I could consistantly hold another 5-10kph in corner speed after turn in along a very familiar road to me! Aside from the squeeking at low speeds, I haven't been able to feel any detrimental effects as of yet

        Ok, my Struts and shocks will be here by the end of next week, so will look at doing the front control arm bushes at the same time.

        I'm guessing that unless I go OE, urethane bushes will be a standard off-the-shelf part.

        Would sombody out there know:

        The outer diameter of the bushes
        The inner diameter of the bushes
        The inner diameter of the metal sleave
        The length of the whole bushing

        The urethane ones come as 2 halves and a metal sleave so I can cut the off-the-shelf ones it they're too long...
