Hi Group:

Our '94 850 Turbo has a loose right front upper shock mount. From inside the engine bay, I can see the top of the shock move slightly up and down as I press on the front bumper. The movement isn't much, maybe 1/4", and it's accompanied by a loud squeak. So, my question is, what part usually fails; the strut mount, or the spring seat, both, or perhaps something else? I'm trying to guess what I need without pulling the assembly apart first, and I realize that's not always the best idea, but I was hoping that in this case an educated geuess would suffice. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Dean
