Is There Only KTR

[Shaun 172]

Hi guys quick question is there only KTR that do the upgraded strut top bearings for the 172/182? or is there someone else out there? :S
As my 172ff has had new strut top bearings and shocks and they still knock there t1ts off going down the road if its not a completely smooth surface.
Thanks in advance Shaun.

AST and Pure Motor sport make them uprated top mounts, unsure on just bearings.

Sure its top mount related if its still knocking?

I'd check tre's and ball joints first.

it wasnt just the bearings i replaced i fitted the complete top mount kit with bearings but they are still knocking so i want the uprated top mounts like ktr do.
Do ast and puresport have a web site??

Google search.

I have Pure Motorsport top mounts on my Clio.

I'd fix your standard ones IMO. I bet they are fitted wrong.

After 23 years as a mechanic mate i'd say i've fitted em correctly

Because mechanics don't make mistakes?

I think they changed the design of the top mounts a couple of years ago, there is also a spacing washer as a fix.
