Had a bit of a clunk for a few months on my z31 and I reckoned it was a knackered strut, it wasn't getting much use until the past few weeks so I just put in to the garage today to get checked out.
Turns out the strut is fine, the clunk was actually due to my rear nearside spring going THROUGH my rear wishbone arm!! Its currently millimeters away from striking the driveshaft...to think I was doing ***mph in it last weekend on a coastal road trip and was due to go a 200 mile road trip to a classic car show this Sunday :ohmy:
Phoned Nissan for a laugh to price up a new arm and they wanted £700+ and a months wait to get it on back order :laugh: so I phoned a few breakers and found one for £25+vat
