well i recently bought a whole new suspension kit for my car (60mm springs all round, uprated shocks all round) and im having a little trouble getting the front ones on. The rear ones went on simple but the front are being a pain in the arse!
the prioblem i am having is that once i have actually taken the frojnt shocks and springs out, i cant undo the bolt at the top holding everything onto the strut!..
in the haynes manual it says that all you need to do is hold the flats at the top of the strut tight and unscrew the bolt.. but you cant unscrew the bolt if your holding the flats as there is a fat rubber thing i nthe way which i cant get to move so i am asuming its attatched to the bolt... However.. in the diagram in the haynes manual its not attatched!.. can someone just tell me if it is attatched or not.
also does anyone have any ideas how i can get the bolt unscrewed.. ive been rying different methods for days and just cant seem to get it off!
Thanks
