Jacked up the back of the car yesterday and grabbed both the rear wheel at the 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock position and gave them a lil wiggle...theres sum play in it gives a little knock as it does this theres hardly any movement at 6 and 12o'clock jus the 3 + 9 position.
Did it with the handbrake on and off and still the same result,

Any ideas why? should it do this or not?

Yeh wheel nuts were on tight,

I'll pick a pair up on ebay? just to make sure which are the right ones do you mean, the plastic rear anti roll bar stabiliser links, or the metal rear top link rods

cheers guys
