New rear coilovers

[172Ben]

New bit of kit, couldnt resist

Just need some O/E rear rubber mounts for the struts and they can be fitted.

:evil:

Before the photos loaded I knew what you had bought, spied them before

Nicely done, what were you running on the rear as may need to chat about swapping mine over (may have a leak :S)

 

[172Ben]

They are lovely

Currently got FK's on there, only done about 1800miles on them

 

[JD]

YHPM lad.

 

[jesus]

Nice, how low will you go?

 

[172Ben]

Its as low as it will go on the FK's, but as im thinking of 888's i might have to increase the height a little, dont want it rubbing

[172Ben]

Yeh mate got ur number. If you have the FK's of me, you can have the top mounts with them, as they are pretty much new mate

 

[JD]

Ah even better, was that PM fitted oh and presume that includes springs and shocks, i.e. full rear setup?

 

[172Ben]

Yeh ill do that fitted for ya mate Including springs, platforms etc

 

[JD]

Great stuff

Oh and probs should have PMd, so if you want to mod this/delete posts fire away

Although does make your thread look more popular

 

[172Ben]

Best stop spamming my own thread now Ill be in touch as soon as ive fitted mine

 

[172Ben]

Right pain getting the old ones off, thought the adjuster had welded itself to the beam!

Before-

After

Sorry the pics dont match, i got carried away, but you get the idea. Raised the height at the front aswell, was to low. Decided to go for handling rather than looks

 

[Christopher]

Spot on

 

[Firas]

so how did you manage to get the adjusters off in the end? hammer?

Little bit of heat, and gentle tapping
