hi just thought i'd mention my 2000 2.7 drove horrible creaking front suspension and loud knock on passenger side rear all these on bumpy roads at 15 - 30 mph it really felt like a bag of s--- like riding on rusty bed springs and loose. Thought what a lemon i'd bought. Went to indy and replaced front coffin arms I am in UK(lower track control arms) and rear forked control arms (lower control arms) no 8 on the pic and car felt good and tighter. Dont know how a new one drives but the bumps now feel and sound like my 3 year old peugeot so acceptable as i cant envisage dampenend remember we're talking about bumpy roads
