Whilst all the suspension will be off next week as I'm having the Motobuild lowering springs fitted; is it worthwhile replacing the rear top mounts?

I've already got the front mounts and bearings etc...

Or do the rear mounts not suffer from the same level of wear & tear etc...

Cheers

the top mounts only consist of a plate with a rubber bush bonded to it.if the bush looks ok ie not split reuse it thats what i have done with no issues.all i did was swop it over to the new damper and put some thread locking compound on the nut

My thoughts exactly; they're not doing a lot really!
