Hi,
Going to Fit my eibachs and notice the top rear struts are well hid behind the rear seat side and head supports,what is the best way to get these out as i cannot see an obvious way.
Thanks Paul my00

Sorted that out but what a pain in the **** to fit.
Cant get the strut out from the car cos the prats that made it put a brake hose through the shocker instead of bolting it,*******,
so it all has to be done on the mota.
Right the standard springs have the compression at the top ,seems a bit strange but the eibachs will only fit with it at the bottom,i take it this is correct???,also the top spring cap is monted on an off centre arrangement,does this have to be positioned in an exact location or is centralising it with the turret ok.
All input appreciated as i am pissed off and it is still raining on me.
Cheers paul

Top cup has to be symetrical with the bottom, it too is off centre. The fronts are the same, if you don't have them in the right place the springs can catch in the turret.
