[@ermingasanin6523]

why did you change the springs ?☺️

[@autodocuk]

Together with the shock absorber sometimes the spring becomes unusable, it is recommended to change the shock absorber assembly with the spring.

Great video tutorial! Need to change my spring tomorrow, it failed! Like the narrators voice, reminds me of scooter!

[@user-xx1uz5wd8n]

А зачем брызгать на шляпу болта?

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for your comment!
WD-40 is a universal liquid that allows you to effectively corrode rust, release metal parts from the grip of frost, has good anti-corrosion properties, allows you to easily remove residues of glue, bitumen, grease.
Is a universal thing that can be used in a car.
Best Regards,

Tech has a good work technique and sequence, but no particle mask and no safety glasses? That's the first thing I do before every job, safety first.

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for your feedback.
Be sure to follow safety precautions during repair work.
