what rear shocks are they?
did they use the vaux rubber top mount or the one supplied

normally the one supplied is smaller than the top mount and not as good

if you use the vaux top rubber it shud be ok

doubt it
when new rear spings fitted use rear vaux top rubber mounts

when you compare the two you will see why

hmmm its hard to explain. like when im driving it sometimes feels like the back left suspension i think collapses for half a second which makes that sound lol. well im tryin to find some 60mm springs and when i get them fitted i\'ll tell them about it and it might sort it out.
