XPLORx4 Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 The spring shouldn't be twisting in the strut, even if the isolator is worn. Either your mechanic reassembled the top of the strut backwards or he didn't replace the strut bearings and they're binding when you turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
