mslater Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 Could anyone tell me what other parts other than the top mounts(bearing?)i need when i install my coilovers(on a GTI)? The names and parts numbers would be great, as i would like to build them up before i install them.Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
si_leeds Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 As far as I know just the bearing and the big rubber top, that's all I changed on my sport anyway I'm guessing gti will be the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max69vk Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 Top mounts usually comes with the bearing & they are the same part for all models.You could also do the lower ball joints & lower wishbones while the strut is out as a good way of 'tightening' everthing up. Bear in mind while the wishbones are the same across the range, the GTI has different lower ball joints that give it a wider track so may sure you get the right ones if you decide to do them.

Tricky88 Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 If u message Dale (lupoboz) he will let you know all you need and supply at the best price too. I just got all Of mine changed and got the following from him:FRONT - Top Mounts / Bearings / Mounting NutsREAR - Bump Stops / Lower Bolts / Lower Nuts - for the shock aborbers.I didn't need front bump stops as the new kit came with them or lower bolts for the rear as I have the whiteline anti roll bar which includes a new bolt as the standard one is too short Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
