I stil got the light snicking noise now turning my steering. First thoughts was the springs jumping. Nope wasnt that. The main snick was coming from the track rod arm. Stripped back and now its stiff and dry. I've bought new track rod arms and everything else to do the job tonight. The snicking only just started since fitting the new suspension.

My knocking noise has gone tho since doing the job and ball joints and drop links.

Next will be the rack if it doesn't solve my snicking.

We were able to manipulate the rack to cause the noise when it was partially dismantled.

Need a new set of tyres and cambelt water pump so expensive few months.
