Does the FK AK kit come with them? Are top mounts needed/recommended at the same time??
Yeah my FK AK's came with new shortened drop links.
I didnt have my top mounts changed cos car had only done 24k, but you may aswell while you have shocks out.

Rears are soo simple to do Damon. Fronts are hard not going to lie.... Hard part is separating the hub front the strut as its pretty much welded together front dirt etc..
Lol they arnt that hard just allow a good long day to get it done in just in case you get any technical hitches. I started mine at 10:00am and was finished by 13:00 so didn't take too long. Just make sure you get some new top mounts and bearings from Dave at sere motors and that will cut your job time down.
To get them off you need a set of spring compressors and the nack of holding the little bar whilst undoing the bolt bolted onto it. The reason it's hard is because the little bar that goes down the centre of the strut spins freely so it's hard to hold still and still be able to get something in there to undo it. There is a guide somewhere on her that links you to a guy who done it on a polo and it's an amazing guide that lets you know what your in for lol
Here it is have a read through this: http://www.clubpolo.co.uk/forum/lofiversion/index.php/t133943.html
Well got my coils when I got home from work so only got round to fitting the rears due to light but I LOVE them can't wait to do the fronts tomorrow
