I wouldnt have thought so provided you dont adjust the hub bolts on the bottom of the shocks.

Do you mean literally just the top cup and nut that is inside the engine bay, or all of the bearing etc that goes on the underside of the turret on top of the coilover?

We need to be removing the strut

 

[Pep]

If removing the strut completely then yes, as it is basically the same as fitting new ones.

Id have it done anyway to be sure. Always do this when changing ANY suspension parts as you are replacing a WORN part with something brand new that isnt warn

 

[BIFCAIDS]

yea you will buddy, as said you have to remove the entire strut. only reason i can think you dont have to have it done is if there isnt any camber adjustment on your suspension

ah sound, cheers for the responses, setup best bet being tweaks?
