I got coilovers BUT do I use the old bushes?

[G1NG3]

i recently bought some coilovers of ebay, there the £200 ones, il try find the link. But anyway i wondered if when i fit them il need to put the bush at the top of the coilover, if so do i need to take it off the old unit, and will i need a spring compressor to do this? any help will be appreciated, cheers

For the effort and cost I would change your top mounts, only cost you a couple of quid all round from GSF, especially as they will take a beating on your newer stiffer suspension.
As for spring compressors you will need a set to fit your coilover, unless you are the strongest man in the world, or want to risk getting the spring fired into your head

Think I have a link to a guide on here if you need any help fitting

I did mine without spring compressors and nearly killed myself

Give that man a Coconut

Ok cheers for the help and advice guys, can't wait to get them fitted now, hopefully put some pics up when there on

Coconut and a helmet will do me fine

only need spring compressor to remove the old front top mounts? my coilovers already came with the springs already fitted.
