It isnt the very top bolt i need that you can see from the engine bay at the turret on the very top of the top mount. Its the bolt that holds the shock and spring together.

Thanks mate. I take it i need to buy a m14x1.5 seperatly ? The picture of the top mount on ebay link looks different to mine. The very top part of mone seems to be all one piece with the bolt rather than seperate. If that makes sence? Do you know if euro car parts would do the top mounts? And...

And am i missing a rubber cap from the bottom of the damper? Its spring direct on to the metal

Im thinking about buying some new top mounts but i assume they wouldnt come with the bolt i need off the coilover...? If not, does anyone know if i could buy this bolt seperatley and what size it would be? @Tony Hunter @Dr Jekyll

Will try again tomorrow but thats what i was doing earlier and there was no moving at all

It just twists the shaft. So you need 2 spanners on it at the same time.

Thanks again mate @Dr Jekyll That 17mm nut will not move at all though. Any suggestions?

T thanks mate, will do. On with the front now and so far it has been easier than the rears, but im stuck with this and dont know how to remove it.

Thanks. Looks so high i thought something must be wrong

It was down

Does this look normal? You can see the silver bar that goes into the damper.

Yea mate, completely removing them. It failed the MOT for the fronts. I have been wanting to go back to standard for a while so this has spurred me on to have to actually do it. First time I have ever done it.

We finally got it! Heated again and used a long bar with allen key attachment and it finally cracked loose.

Had it heated with a blow torch and it will still not move! Not sure what to do now

Does this bolt need to come out?

Thanks. Is it not screwed on from underneath?

How do i remove these thing!?!?!?!?

Are the fronts the correct way or do the springs need flipping?

Cheers all. Yes mine have 2 rubbers on each spring too.
