Well I've had the car up on the ramps today and I have found a couple of issues (1 dangerous!!)

rear axle mounts are fooked (near side is split in 2 and isn't doing anything! and I thought the knock was the exhaust on the rear axle!  :shocked:)
front top mounts have gone
ball joint on front passenger side has gone
front wheel bearing has gone (I may be able to tighten yet?)
both rear shocks are fooked (leaky leaky!)

well It means I will need to spend £££ sooner but at least I can fit the shocks and springs I bought, so it's not all bad!

Considering you've got a new suspension kit to fit anyway that list isn't too bad or expensive really. At least theres no structural issues to worry about.
