Top mount bearings

[Huffski]

Alreet. I fitted my coilovers myself but forgot how they went on. The bearings have gone in the top mounts. Can anyone tell me if I'm going to have to compress
The spring? I seem to remember all I have to do is tak the top nut off drop the coilover down then remove top mount with bearing. This right

 

[Fred@BTM]

sounds about right

 

[Huffski]

They creak if I'm on full lock. Would I need to just replace the bearing or the top mount aswell

You should replace the bearing.

 

[Camble]

yes you do

 

[Jonny1*2]

how much do they cost btw ?

 

[Camble]

iirc about a tenner each, I think mate.

 

[Jonny1*2]

thats not too bad. Mine are on the way :S Clios don't like to stand for too long

 

[Camble]

lol...They usually have to be ordered btw, some AC dealers stock them but only the major ones.

 

[Jonny1*2]

thanks for the heads up. Part number (you know what dealers can be like)

 

[Camble]

tbh mate I'm not sure of a PN, just go in and give the reg and they'll sort you out

Just looks like a giant polo, about 10cm wide iirc

Replace both parts together.. Both wear out. do it once do it right.
