thanks for the video. good tips in there. I wouldn't have known to red grease the collets, and thanks for confirming there are indeed 2 bumpstops on the rear

I'm glad you are back. There was something missing in my life ;)

[@joller79]

Welcomeback lads, you been missed

[@chrispascoewhite]

What a great video, absolutely a massive help!! We’ll done, just one question, What happens with the piston rod nut, I can’t seem to get it to torque up( which I believe is 45Nm) it just seems to keep pulling up through and then the cap won’t go on, I am a complete novice so apologies if it’s a silly question 😬 the gaz shocks look awesome though, especially with all the arms and links ground off and painted!!, thanks in advance

glad you're back :)

If you're going to do this yourself, spray some penetrating fluid on the bolts a few days in advance ;)

A carpenters claw hammer used in an automotive setting lmfao, oh and what were the torque settings on the bolts FT?

[@carmadham]

You do great work but I do hate seeing a mechanic using a claw hammer on a car.
