I think I need to replace those dreaded IRS upper shock mounts :evil:

I am thinking of doing it myself.

However would a wheel alignment be necessary.


thanks

Easy job. The alignment settings do not need to be touched.

cool, thanks guys.

has anyone had any experience with these new design mounts. looks to be basically getting rid of the vulcanised rubber and having fixed metal mounts.
