Replacing front Springs.


Recommended Posts

Hi Guys,



Help please.



I was in the process of replacing the front springs with lowering ones but cannot separate the shock absorber from the spring. there is nothing that you can hold the shaft so that you can undo the top bolt. am i missing something? is there any trick to remove it?



As usual thanks in advance.

Stick the shock back in the car semi tighten the strut nuts in the bay, place bottom of strut into the hub ( stops it spinning ) and then undo the large strut nut in the center so the spring will drop out onto brakes below :)



Above is abit pikey but to do it correctly spring compressor the springs first and then follow above :)
