impreza wagon 01 front shocks , where to get standard ones? nct say the springs are loose so i guess shocks could be the problem ??

was told before the front shocks are dropping down a bit

any help lads ??
 
IS the car lowered. If so thats why the springs are loose? :dontknow:
 
Im not sure if its lowered, if it is can only be a tiny bit, front right was dropping down a bit ages ago which is causing a small clunk when taking off, il have it checked and see if its spring or shock
 
cant say ive ever heard of that happening even with shocks that are completly boloxed, the wrong springs must be on the car, and there fore not doing there intended job of holding car up, so all weight is on the shock, the shock is compressed the whole way down and bottomed out hence the banging sound, you effectively have no shock absorbers, you should look around the shock towers and see is there any evidence of panel sealer cracking with the impact of no shock absorbtion

Also it may be that the wrong shocks are in the car and are 2 long, and shock is down to the full but still 2 long and holding car up and not letting springs take the weight, more likely springs do
 
Going to have it checked and see nct wasn't a problem with them before might treat it to shocks and springs maybe, thanks for the advice and il see what she needs
 
Rubber bit missing from the bottom of the shock seems to be my first port of call, so see if that helps or fixes it
 
Ciaran RSRA is breaking a blob STi. Other then that try Froggie or Dave.
