for my mk3 golf, know there not the best but im not rich lol. are they prety easy to fit?

did my mk3 front/rears in under 2hours front leg bolts are the bugger as these are very tight from the factory

yeah they will be easy enough, spray some wd40 on the leg bolts before you do them and let it soak

i thought the same m8 thats how they came out the box

id have a word mate its best to have them on there. you maybe able to use the boot off your old units if worst comes to worst.

if you get newt top mounts you wont need spring clamps. just wind the coilies down all the way and put the new top mounts on.

if your gonna use your old top mounts then you will need clamps to get them off.

best to use new mounts as youve got it all out

you have a pm jack.

easy to fit.

People say it's better to go for vr top mounts as they're stronger - took 2 guys about 40 mins to fit mine!

Get down to euro car parts and get some top mounts. Ill help you when i have time.

Buy a tube of copper grease or something to coat the main threads....

i just use thick grease on mine. matty doesn't agree because all the s**t sticks to it, but you just wipe it off and all is good then slap some more grease on and it saves the threads for next time

Put these on today just needs to go up a touch on the rears though

dont you mean down a touch on the fronts?

Not on the roads round here it was very low on the front to start with but it was not practical being a daily.

pot holes are easy, just go round them... you havnt seen the country roads to my brothers, or the royston heath car park, and have you ever driven through the devon country roads?, they are the WORST roads i have ever seen, makes the santa pod roads feel smooth

I'm used to Florida roads wider, straighter, smoother, no cars ether side blocking up the roads i really cant believe the condition of the roads i drive along in disbelief

yeaaaa they are smooth over there!, i was expecting the canadian roads to be just as good, but think they are just as bad as england, at the end of my road theres this huge drainage gutter thing in the road, could be a bit of a problem

Well lets not waste our time on this subject we know aint s**t gown change!

hear he hear he!
