OK, in the middle of the strut/shock job on the trusty 850 my daughter drives. Did the pass side, no issues, but on the driver side, after reassembling with new strut (Sachs), I noticed play in the strut mount. Lots of side to side wiggling. Disassembled and while holding this thing in my hand I have plenty of side to side slop along with some up and down. I'm thinking its gone. Other side seemed fine. Before I blow more money, you guys agree?

Thinking of the Boge one, claimed to be OEM maker on the usual site, the OEM's seem a bit stiff pricewise, don't need 15 years out of this machine.

Let me know what you think. Mike
