Replacing Front Suspension

  1. #1
    Ive got a knocking noise coming from the front end, only when on full lock, worse when in reverse. I have a feeling it might be track rod ends (was an advisory on MOT).

    I can change these myself but whilst Im at it, is it worth changing/replacing anything else, such as wishbones etc, even if it is just for piece of mind.

    So far I can just think of TRE, wishbones and polybushes. What else? Are just OE parts fine or would it be worth spending that bit extra on uprated parts?

    Springs and shocks are both less than a year old.

    Personally, i would replace the trackrod ends and drop links. If your taking the whole strut off then id replace topmount bearings too.
