fitting coilovers already have new top mounts etc

Featured Replies

Can anyone give me a brief guide to fit coilovers, I have bought new top mounts, bearings and drop links.

All I have it's 4 Jack stands and a trolley Jack.

How long would it take? And can anyone giver me a brief guide?

Probably a good few hours, id imagine, took me and my mate 2 hours but we used his hydraulic ramps in kwik fit so was a doddle!

Ah right any other info?

Cheers

There's a funny shaped bit that you'll need for the fronts, it's like a star shap ( sorry I don't know the name if it) it's around the back if the hub. jack up the car equslly, and when doing them it will be handy to have the jack free to lift the struts/ rear beam into place to bolt easier :) also make sure each side is measured properly when adjusting height... good luck mate

I noticed it more with standard suspension, but haven't tried the coilovers without it so not sure, it's very stiff and the back end is very naughty at times lol but I recently put a front strut brace in which seems to have tied it all in nicley :)
