woopsie. Just replace the topmount not the whole suspension.

might be easier to source a 2nd hand whole kaboodle tho.

I dont think id drive it like that, however all it really does is stop the shock falling out, so as long as you dont get air i suppose it wil be fine.

Dont want no back lash if you go and kill urself tho

Should be a simple and cheap job to fix..

the top bolts can be knocked out and replaced(or they can on the bugeye sti top mounts) these are still standard, or a good excuse to buy some pillow ball ones
