Got them off PhilJ

Cool. How much did they set you back if you don't mind me asking? (looking to get some after pay day)

  • Author

£175.. well £181 cos of paypal fees but give Phil a pm or drop a comment on the thread, hes quick at getting back to you. I shall tell you how the ride is when I get them on... looking to be about 2 weeks on Sunday :'(

Yeah man that's good. And no worried that will be a big help.

You may need shorter drop links to get these on if you plan to go lower than 35mm

Why is it soo squeaky....

Why is what so squeaky? Coilovers?

Yeah! It's awful...

Erm, Did you replace or re-use your top mounts? Every time you take them off they should be wiped clean and greased with rubber grease even the back 1's.

Could be the rubber seals on the dampers if they are dry could squeal. But then they would split eventually, It could be the shock lower bushes or a abr bush if you are low - with out shorted drop links

Do you know were about its coming from? Front or back?

It's Coming from the front...

Re used the top mounts, I'll take it back tomorrow, I thought it was just cos they were new at first bits its dead annoying now

Edited by Marc9n3

shouldn't make a noise they are either fitted wrong or a damaged part.
