Default st recomendations.

ok, bit of advice needed.
Had a slight knock on the rear of the fiesta st, so stuck it up on the ramp today and both rear shock bushes are well on there way out. Now i have a Eibach spring set on i would normally replace them with some decent shocks as ther std at the min, but for the billys b8 all round its best part of 450. Now gaz or spax coilovers can be had for about 520ish.

Funds are tight but what would you do in my situation the car is only fast road and the odd go down york race way.

occasionaly clunk when going over some pot holes and when hammering it it some times clunks when changing direction.

Its definatly the shock. checked rear beam bushes, brakes, exhaust mounting. but the shock has play in it.
