I think the rubber has degraded and in consequence the top mount has deformed. Can the rubber mount be replaced in situ or do I have to removing the whole strut ?

The strut need to be removed as I think its all bolted together That's assuming you be the lowr maprt of the mount with the bearing it it? Last edited: Mar 16, 2021
