"Well there is your problem"
These are the fronts that came out of the car. The passenger side (
right in photo) is leaking past the seal quite a bit and the drivers side is starting to do the same. The both side offer far less compression resistance then the '
new' Bilstiens I picked up yesterday so probably a good thing I got them.
You can see how much of a beating it put on the passenger bump stop took, and the rest of the rubbers and shields on them are pretty beaten as well. Thankfully the
new set are in far better condition so should be a goer very soon.
