Moog strut mounts rubbish

So a few months ago I bought some new Koni shocks and some Moog strut mounts. Well just under 400 miles later the mounts are garbage they both failed.

I'm still running stock springs. I highly recommend getting Lemforder

Thanks for the info on the Moog Nicefeet.

Replaced mine with Lemforder and had no issues. Recommend to do them in pairs. Since you will see how to do one side then the other. Just to let people know there is an early design Strut mount for 2002 models. Here is a helpful link to more info and what to check.

Thanks
