I recently changed my suspension and hubs for 54mm spacing ones from 52.. long story for the curious lads read my previous posts.

Anyway my steering is now at about 10'oc to go straight so I'm wondering if I've knocked the tracking out or the suspension isnt meant for my clio etc..

How easy is it to knock the tracking out?

Also if i bounce the car up and down and look at the top strut nut under the bonnet they have some play in them, im thinking it's bad but then i think theres no real way of securing them tight as it's a simple bolt through thread so i'm wondering if they're supposed to move a little bit?

the top mounts on them are probably worn.

How much would they cost to replace at a garage mate?
Would you reckon I'd need tracking after replacing the suspensions?
