scobie140 Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 rears are a doddle, when doing the fronts make sure you bring each side of the spring down equally it makes life easier. When installing the new springs I found just before fitting them when the new spring is on the strut and compressed that the strut would want to expand its self a little so I pressed it down and cable tied that extra half inch or so to keep it in place. made it a lot easier re fitting, then just snip off when in place. also if when you re fit the strut bolt it on loosely before you take the tension off the spring as then its already lined up and you only need to line up the spring. Its easy enough, you should be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GIXXERUK Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Much. Better ! And it will settle more, always feels good when you do the job yourself Are they eibach -30mm springs ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jp606 Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 (edited) Looking good. Did my springs last weekend, pretty straight forward job and I was surprised that I had no trouble with seized bolts, Plus Gas releasing fluid and a wire brush works wonders. Shall be doing the ARBs Sunday if the weather is ok. Not sure if yours is the same, but I found one of my rear sides sat slightly lower than the other, it may even out after the springs have settled more but I think it's quite normal.
