when checking wheel bearings today ive noticed play at the top of the strut.

question is...do i just replace the rubber doughnut or do i need to replace the complete top mount kit ?

I'd do the lot as you've got it apart. You might need an airgun to undo the nut on the strut top as when i tried with a normal spanner did not get anywhere. Was a 20 second job with the air impact gun :D
