suspension problem on low speed bumps!

[Aliperon]

okay so my car is on stock struts with sportline springs. when i go over little bumps or imperfections in the road at slow speeds it feels like the suspension is loose or something what could be worn out because all my bushings on the knuckles are good and the tie rods are good so im stumped. it also when it goes over these bumps bangs a bit. thanks

How long have you been on that set up? Your struts may be blown.

[Aliperon]

well i bought the car like that idk how long it was before but they probly are blown cause they a bit of play in them. its got 221000km or 138mi now i bought it at 187xxx

hmmm, ya i would say your struts are blown. Is ther ride a bit bouncy?

I was lovered on Neuspeed sport spring on stock struts for a few years till they blew. Put the springs in 80,xxxkm and noticed the drop in ride quality around 120,xxxkm i think. Got coilovers and much better.

its not bouncy at all its just a little clunky and loose feeling but with the wheels off the strust have a little play in them

Could be the top hats in that case.

Don't forget to check your sway bar end links. I had a horrible clunk from the front driver side because of one that was loose. Obviously your issue could be something else, but it's someone easy to check.

yeah i was kinda thinkin top hats too along with worn out shocks, the endlinks are good we made sure when the axles got changed

Yes this, and check your subframe bolts...if loose those will clunk

thanks for the tips il check over eveyrthing again and hopefully soon i can fund some new suspension

check the lower ball joint?

when i installed coilovers and new bushings i had to go buy those and put new ones because they were ripped to shreds also

[Aliperon]

thanks ive replaced the passenger ball joint and the drivers side is still okay
