Rear shocks & spring fitting guides

[Terry172]

Can anybody point me in the right direction to find these as I have a set of Eibach Sportlines and new standard shocks to go on?

Do a search in the members guide area.

I can find the lowering spring guide but not a guide to do with changing the rear shocks?

Terry the shocks is easy, you just jack the back up, stick it on some stands (on the frame not the suspension!). Unbolt the lower bolt holding it to the trailing arm, then unbolt the nuts under the rubber caps in the boot. Once the lower bolt is off the springs will pull out. Make sure when putting back together the correct torque settings are applied.

Its only 1 bolt and 1 nut for each side.

Does anybody know where the lowering guide went from the guides room as unless I am going blind it doesn't seem to be there?

Ignore the above as I found it in my history
