Front sway bushes are new...

Bennoz replaced them for me... About 2 weeks before the car was sold...
I just had to add it ......

May be engine mount...

That was going to be the next lot of things I was going to replace on the car... I know I did one of them a while ago... As Aza and I heard a creaking from the front right of the car... And it was only on takeoff...

But can't remember if this was Bobby or Smurf .... :scratch:

Its probably the rear lower control arm bush gone dry. Mine creaks every now and again, if they are poly.
