Title: ARB/bushes replaced, still got a knock!!!
Post by: Pete H on 08 October 2009, 20:19
Had the whole arb replaced and the bushes, but i still have a knocking when turning the steering either at stand still or traveling slowly, not as bad as before but noticable.

What next, top mounts, or wish bones?

Hmmm decisions! lol

been listening abit more, it only does it as slow speeds when turning, like creeping round a corner, or stood still.

mines the same, but if i go along and jerk the car from left to right it does it quite badly, any ideas?
