Thanks for that but I can't do either (gas system gone and I can't afford to drop another$2000 to change it again), so I'll get my local experts to sort it, it feels great on the road, but clearly needs some.adjustment or lubrication somewhere...

Squeaking and banging is one of the problems with the SUPLEX kit, I wouldn't use it, haven't come across anyone who has a system that works !!!!! you should have the spheres re-gassed or fit the Mike Satur spring kit

Took the F out for a run with brand new spring kit from Rimmer Bros. The ride on the new suspension is fantastic, however it is emitting a terrible squeak even with the tiniest movement of the car. Sounds like a kid jumping up and down on a squeaky spring mattress or a dog chewing a squeaky toy! Driving me absolutely nuts (although flat out with the roof down almost drowns it out).

I am guessing I need to add grease or adjust something? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated, but I have also emailed Rimmer Bros as well...

Cheers

The only time I have heard of subframe cracking was with Suplex conversions on hydrolastic subframes, I have never heard of it with standard suspension for either MGF or TF.

What kit did you use to update from Hydrolastic?
If it was using the original subframe but something like the Suplex kit then it is known that can crack the top mounts without strengthening.
If you changed to TF subframes then I haven't personally heard of any major subframe issues other than rust.
