Good vid but 1 criticism is with it being a how to video you probably should of covered using the spring compressors even know u didn't need to as sadly you'll get people who just undo the top nut
@@GeorgeAusters yh that's the issue sadly people do it and they can kill when they let go it's more the spring that does the damage The garrage my dad done his apprenticeship at had 2 springs inbedded in the roof apparently
I think you have put te spring upside down. the basis of the spring is a little bit larger then the upper side....but nevertheless the spring will has his function. Greetings.
Solid job! Doing the rear next week. One is totally weared out. Bang bang on every bump on the road. Problem is that you get used with bad shocks and adjust your driving piece by piece so you think it's okay anyhow. Then you change and realise how bad it was. Well done!
Hey George, can you do a video on where and how to run an Aerial cable through the firewall on a Corsa. thanks, I'm having trouble ..if not can you direct me to another video that can show how too. cheers. from Australia.
Hey mate, how is the suspension doing so far (front + rear)? I'm thinking of replacing both front and rear suspension on my Corsa C since it's behaving like a BOAT 😂 Is it worth it overall, is the difference that big? Thanks.
The worst car ever seen. ECU get contaminated by water after a while. Manifold get blocked and a nighmare to remove ..nothing worse than this 1.3 engine
@@GeorgeAusters Siezed bolts both sides cant undo any of them..... best method? I've put penetrating oil on to soak in for now. If that doesnt help I can get hold of a mapp gas torch.. then my final option would be grinder, however I'm struggling to find replacements.
Very dangerous mate.
Maybee you spring is not compressed.
But if someone else watch you videos and kill himself.very dangerous video
Those swivel to strut bolts are Torque to Yield and thus need to be replaced after being disturbed
Strongly recommending to the individuals dont follow his procedure
The way how he took out spring was wrong
Crap.... This is dangerous to say the least to stay directly on top of the strut while undoing the coil retainer nut... This is a big NO NO !
I used spring clamps?

Haha and then.... Kaboom top mount straight to the nuts!

Yeah exploding springs will decapitate in a blink of an eye.

The springs were put on the same way they came off👍🏻

Did you replace the spring upside down ?
No
Some struts are having really strong spring coils. Removing the retainer nut while being on top of it.. would be a fast trip to ER.
It’s why you use spring compressors, or compress the spring yourself as shown in the video👍🏻
If they were the standard size maybe, these here are lowering springs

Sold this like 2 years ago👍🏻
@@GeorgeAusters Still, from your experience, is it worth changing the entire suspension? Is there a difference or money down the drain?
Why has every u tube vid avatar got a stupid face on it
Haha

The worst car ever seen.
