More ideas in my mind...nice one Chris 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
nice easy job mate 👍
Magnifico como siempre, gran trabajo, thanks...
Glad the vids helped 👍🏻
Another great vid mate 👍🏻
Cheers mate 👍
Great video Chris love the content buddy keep it coming :D
Cheers mate appreciate it 👍 I'm going to get on the inlet and injectors this weekend
Nice work Chris👌👌
Thanks mate 👍🏻
Great video Chris. I have this to do on mine and will look to follow your method.
cheers mate this is a very quick and easy way of doing it 👍
Just come across this video as need to change the top mounts on my ibiza fr.Been a bit apprehensive about doing it but your way looks so much easier than removing the whole strut.
This is a much easier way or doing it took about 20mins aside to do
Jeez if thats the easy way i dont want to see the hard way LOL good job Chris!
🤣😂🤣cheers mate 👍
A lot easier with lowering springs than with oem springs. Great video lad 😊
Cheers mate 👍
Nice work mate! I do need to do this on mine as the guys flagged it at MOT. I might be borrowing those spring compressors!
Thanks mate Yeah easy job and no worries let me know when you need them 👍
Thanks for this vid 🫶
Belle vidéo 👌 😉. Beau travail ⚒ 😉 👍. TT 👍
🔥🔥🔥🔥👍👍
@@CarChris82 👍😉
Nice! Looks loads easier doing it that way.
Its much quicker and easier this way mate takes about 20mins a side 👍🏻
Nice video. I did it a similar way to you. Put 10mm lowering. Tip I saw form bws if you undo the top hat and crack off the shock nut before you pick up the car the put the top hat back on a few turns.
And same in revers when fitting. 👍
Good stuff mate 👍
I did mine this way Chris hell of a lot easier👍
Definitely mate 👍🏻
Just fitted B6 struts, new springs and Bilstein top mounts. Still have a bit of a gap. Would powerflex top mounts eliminate the gap? Not sure I can be arsed to change them again though...lol
Didn’t think it was possible that way! When I had mine done it cost me £220 in labour and they still messed it up! That’s why I do everything myself now 👍
Yeah very easy this way mate and only takes about 20mins a side 👍
Well done for pulling off the short cut Chris....do those new top mounts make for a firmer/ more rigid ride???
Thanks mate 👍🏻 I don't really feel any difference tbh but maybe because it has got uprated suspension on it anyway 🤔
The way it looked *before you had about 10mm gap, when you change the top mounts did the car lift with 10mm as well or stays as before?
Thanks :)
Hi bud, does coil overs make any difference to o the process?
It shouldn't do as long as you can compress the spring to get the tension of the top 👍🏻
Any tips for undoing the top mount bolts without an impact gun ?
Use a big spark plug socket whixh you can grip the end and a long hex i think its a 6mm
@@CarChris82 cheers buddy. I have a 21mm spark plug socket but struggling to get the hex Allen key through it, should I force out the rubber part used for spark plugs??
@@simongoodwin4360 yes mate remove the rubber 👍🏻
will that technique work on original springs you think?
Yes your still compressing the spring
@@CarChris82 thanks buddy i will give it go next week 👍🏻
Not sure if greasing the bush is good idea ... its not meant to turn against the body and it sits on a bearing which rotates so where is this grease helping ?
the grease that comes with it is more to stop it from creaking been driving it for about a week with no ill effect
Yeah they’re renowned for creaking unless you grease them properly
@@simongoodwin4360 you know it mate 👍
I would put that down to uncleaned mating surfaces. Again bush isn't meant to move against body but with grease your gonna help it do so.
I do understand what you're saying here.. but it's usually the case with most other bushes, like a trailing arm bush. The only place of movement should be between the pin and the bush.. the outer surface of the bush should be a good connected surface to the inner trailing arm. Then the inner pin stays still with the bolt pinching the pin. So the bush must move on the pin.
It's not really the same with a top mount, although I would agree the surface between the bush and bearing should be dry and clean so it grabs.. but I would grease a little on the underside of the chassis where bush meets
This is -1 or stock;
standard height one mate
Did same job on mine, but Powerflex mount is more than stiff. Had to remove them and replace by oem mount.
