Definitely get them checked out, as I had to replace both on my escort cos they were knackered - all cracked and letting the strut move around, also the metal cup underneath it can become badly worn if you have this problem!!

easy job rhys took me about 1hr to do the front and that included building up the coilovers with the new bearings and putting in the ploybush top mount. You really need them as they aid steering. Mine were fooked and used to knock like fook. Steering feel is so much better with the new ones
