I have a phase 1 306 which i recently lowered 35mm on the front, After lowering a clonk from the offside front developed when i'm turning at a junction or doing somesort of very slow turn. It was always abit juddery from the offside front before but it seems tohave got alot worse after lowering it. The only thing i can think is the driveshaft as the angle has changed?

I had the same problem with my 106 last year and after much searching it turned out to be the nut at the top of the shock wasn't tight enough...best bet is to tighten the bollox outta the top nut and see how that goes before spending money and time on other solutions.

I would say that you already have answered your questions. GKN one from GSF is a good route.
