Fitting Coilovers.. what else do i need???

[Judderi]

Yeah the shaft thats spinning that the bolt secures to should have some sort of allen key or nut shape to the top of it. Hold this then tighten the nut.

Hang on a moment

After spending the evening swearing at my coilovers top top "retaining nut" Big 22mm nyloc thing the shaft obviously spins! but it's a nyloc nut and just sheared the 8mm flat for holding the shocker whilst trying to undo it. can I use this to undo it I thought You needed that tool for the strut mounting rubber top strut mount nut. Can I use it to undo my top 22mm nut??? or do I need to take it to the impact wrench owning garage?

I only want to change my topmounts!

How do you recommend i set these bad boys up.. there ride height adjustable and damper adjustable.

slam it you tart

that nocking noise is annoying. stick a large washer between the topmount and the coilover.

it seems to fit really well already though.. Front end is rubbin already and it doesnt feel like a hard right.. seems boucy..

I just drove mine home after changing all the mounts and adding washers to the strut.
It's like riding  jetski that's the only way I can describe it bounces like a b*stard and still knocking like a b*stard too
