Hi all,Next week im going to start doing the above, I was wondering if you could let me know everything i would need to build complete struts off the car? Am I right in saying its this The following i have bought new so far: Top mounts Top mount bearings Springs Shocks Bumpstops Shock dust boot thingys I assume all i would need extra is the top spring cups? Or have i missed something else? ________________________________________ Ex- Phase 3 China GTi-6 T-Reg |

It depends what you got in the top mount kits. Potentially you may still need: Pair of spring top pans Pair of mount top cups Pair of large washers Pair of small washers ________________________________________ Rich |

Bloody hell a lot of it is expensivetwo top mounts (or mounting assy) which i assume is right Works out as 100 quid? The bearings are 50 for the 2 Which means 150 for two mounts and bearings? rest cups are 29 quid for the two which is ok I think im going to get lemforder ones if I can (I havent bought the mounts yet but was going to in the morning) Cheers for the above two posts guys, I didnt realise that lmao. The other thing that confuses me is diagrams for both front shock and sprong show two differnt rod protectors and two top cup cover things? ________________________________________ Ex- Phase 3 China GTi-6 T-Reg |

503160,503377 503326 525413 x2 and then i decided to add 5051081 5051082 Needless to say peugeot have bummed me. Theres a bit of a price markup at newport lookers too. The total was 399 But most of that was the HDI 21mm bars. ________________________________________ Ex- Phase 3 China GTi-6 T-Reg |
