got the RL coils finally xD
here we go.
comparison against the old blown toser from front passenger side.
replaced front passenger evo4 strut and mickeymoused coilover setup
almost blown front driver TOSER coilover and RL coilover
fapfuckingtastic!
mmm pillows again
now for those who dont know how to install these, here is a quickie.
loosen tire lugnuts a bit, jack up car, and remove tire. open hood, and loosen three triangular 14mm strut top nuts.
go to the strut shaft and loosen/remove the two 17mm nuts/bolts that hold the strut to the knuckle. if your strut has the option, also remove the C clip holding the brake line to the strut using a screwdriver. fully loosen strut top 14mm bolts.
reinstallation is the reverse of removal.
i start by putting the strut in place and nearly fully tightening the 14mm top bolts. then i use a jack and raise the knuckle up to meet the shock, and secure the 17mm nuts and bolts. after that i would install the C clip for the brake line, and put the wheel back on and lower the car. tighten the top 14mm nuts. tighten the wheel. done.
