i have spring compessors but i wanted just to unbolt the old ones and put the new ones in,

i went to vauxhall and had a look to see wot i get for £19 and its just the bit with the threads on. what i need is everything above the red spring and the dust cover and bump stop.




so now i have decided just to strip mine down and use what i have.

How are you going to re-assemble the shocks without spring comressors?

wot size are the 2 lower bolts, can't remember, been a while since i have lowered my car :lol:

Not a clue :look:

price;)

Nah you won't need Spring Compressors :look:

I undid one side on the Red V plate Envoy that's down there! Just get the other side undone, undo the lower bolts and your away.

do u know how much they will charge tho, if i just undo the top nut and use the weight of the car i shouldnt need spring compressors should i?

Fly down Silvers Mark! Fire them out of a Corsa down there. Is hassle getting the top mount undone as usual. haha

Get vaux ones.... cheap as and gonna be better than your possibly worn ones.

Getting my koni kit tommorrow, but i dont really want to take my suspension apart for the top mounts, would i be better getting new ones as my gsi has done 80K. Anyone know places that does these. Vauxhall want £19 each?

Cheers :thumbs:
