Hey guys,

There is a rubber ring that sits between the springs and the suspension struts (where the springs rest on the suspension), what do you call that and how much are they? I've noticed that my front driver side is been worn out and that is what causing the clacking noise every time I hit a bumps.

no bump stops sit on the shaft to stop the top of the shock hitting the bottom part when the shock bottoms out.

If its the ones im thinking is the small rubber pad that sits between the spring and the spring seat they are 3 bucks each from mitsi.

And bumpstops are worth a lot more then that, around 45 each from memory

Does anyone know if you buy new KYB struts or similar if they come with these new? My car had some clacking noise in the suspension, however after I got new springs and shocks it has gone away. I was thinking this may have been the problem....

No, the spring insulator pads and the bump stops you have to purchase seperately.
