Hi guys!!

So had my Evo x a couple years now and the suspension started knocking pretty much as soon as I got it! I got some secondhand low mileage suspension legs which resolved the problem.
But it has now started happening again! 😳😳

Any ideas on what best to do to rectify this? I'm happy with the ride ect on the standard bilsteins so don't really want to go down the route of coilovers.

Very common problem on the X. Usually on the n/s front.mine also did it but I wanted to go down the coilover route anyway so it was a good excuse to change.

Autotorque sell refurbed sets or even individual shocks but they're not cheap which is another reason why I opted for coilovers, but if you only need one then not so bad. Trouble with that is how long until the others fail.

It's something I'm eventually planning to do, coilovers are in my X atm, and my OE Bilsteins are all boxed up, ready to go.

Great price that. Can't see parts costing that much.:smthumbup
