OK. I just had my front springs replaced on Saturday. I thought everything was good to go. Then yesterday I heard a clunking in the front. So I popped the hood to see the passenger side Shock sticking up higher than the driver side. I thought the nut wasn't tightened when they put the new springs in, but the thread length sticking up past the nut is the same on both sides. I took the car to NTB to check it out. (A friend did the spring install) They said that the strut mount was broken and the strut was pushing up through it.
So the question is....What exactly do I need? A STRUT CUSHION/MOUNT???? or a STRUT-MATE BEARING PLATE??? Looking at Rockauto.com they look like the same thing. Can't tell the diff???
Also, why would the mount have broken?? Should I have used new one?
Thanks
