i have tightened the nut right down on the top of the treaded bit of the coilover then fitted the spring top mount, then the top mount bearing and the bush, my problem is with those fitted the top of the threaded bar doesnt reach threw the top of the turret for me to fit the metal plate and the nut onto the top

anybody know what i am doing wrong???

use the original spring top seat and the nut that holds the spring seat down (threaded bush).

i have used the original top mount, what goes on first the mount or the nut?

i take it your fitting evo coilovers?

don't use the big blue shiny spring top seat. use the original.

first u put on the spring top seat, then the bearing, then the nut (threaded bush). and the rubber top mount goes on top of all that.

ok thanks mate, that is exactly what i neeed to know, will let uknow how i get on in 20 min

cheers

and when i turn the steering should there be any movment at the top of the strut under the bonnet?
