Deadmetal Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 I'm guessing you're having trouble taking the top mount nut off?A clearer description of the problem would be useful.The top mount bolt is a complete pig to get off.Spring compressors, mole grips and a feck load of elbow grease get them off. Took two people to get mine off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loopy29 Posted September 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 The problem is iv got top mounts so don't really need my old ones but with the metal dome on top of the coilover plus the top mount just ain't enough thred to get the nut on take the dome off or leave the top mount off fits perfect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 iv just fit mine today, i just wound the adjusters right down and there was plenty of thread for the top mount and the nut to go on.take a picture and im sure one of us will be able to help better if we see the problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loopy29 Posted September 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 I havnt got the computer anymore to up load I use my I phone to come on the site if the dome silver thing wasn't on and just the top mount on would be easy but both together just not enough thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
