Getting the struts apart can occasionally be a problem without air tools. I wouldn't attempt suspension if you're not completely confident or resourceful.

mine had to be battered off with a club hammer after only about 8k miles.
they put em on pretty tight from the factory.

get a peice of wood on the forward facing wall of the rear box if you want to preserve it, then give it a bash.

well mine wouldn't come off my corsa after 28k, even after being soaked in wd40

in the end i took it to a garage and they used a hot spanner to get it off, only charged me £15 & saved me a lot of hassle!

yeh mechanics shud av them :) 4 the zorst u'll need hammer, flathead screwdriver and mayb a spanner, jus loosen the clamps on the zorst, take the hooks off the hangers then pull zorst off the pipe, then replace with new zorst, make sure u got sum gum aswell :)
