Where is the the play ?, between the shock shaft and the bush in the top mount or lower down ? I know some modern cars do have a lot of play in the top mount when the car is jacked up, like my Wife's Corsa, but it's by design.

Needs somebody with an early saloon build manual where the donor was the Mk1 Fiesta. Pretty sure the toe is parallel. I have camber adjusting bolts on my 2+2, i will see if i can find the settings i ended up with.

First and foremost are mk1 top mounts supposed to have play in them when jacked up? I have refurbed both ours and fitted new bearings and they still do this and the car doesn't have a vague feel. I've never driven it hard yet as I simply don't think it's ready. Secondly does anyone have any information as regards recommended castor and camber/ toe in and out. Having now fitted camber bolts and having a re-tinker this afternoon after a rather dodgy first geometry set up. It now seems to drive a hell of alot better. But if the mounts are not meant to have play in them I'm guessing it's my final suspension hurdle to get it nice and tight. Unfortunately the mounts are not mounted the same as on the fiesta so your adjustable mounts will do castor not camber as designed.
