I reassembled my front struts on my 4ksq with new strut mount/bearings and new slotted bushings. The bearings were snapped into the mounts at the factory.
Even when the slotted bushings are fully tightened, the strut mounts wobble. I did fully compress the spring before installing the washer, then the spring retainer, then the strunt mount, and then the slotted bushing.
Is this normal play in the bearing? The old mounts I removed have this wobble, but I thought this was normal after 70k miles.
