Am I right in thinking the ones on GSF (N45710) are the right ones?

I know my O/S one is on it's way out, it's clunking as the steering's turned, so might as well replace them both.

Quick question though, would a worn bearing cause the steering to snap under hard cornering? There's no play in the steering unless you turn in hard, and then it snaps as if there was a worn ball joint/TRE. Both of them on each side have now been replaced, and the problem's nearly gone, just hoping this last clunking noise will cure it for good.

yeah, that's the right part number, not sure if it would cause what you're getting, possible if they're totally fubbared I guess.

Only other thing i can think of would be the tracking, i replaced one TRE earlier in the week and the other one's getting done tomorrow.

Think it could be the toe that's causing the oversteer from the front?
