I had a few jobs to finish off before the shock swap was complete. I needed to retighten the gland nuts as all of the manouvering loosened them slightly.
The replacement nuts are quite different, but I found that an angle grinder disc changing tool is perfect for slotting into the holes for tightening them.
And then tightening the top nuts with the struts in the car - not as easy as before since the impact gun is just spinning the shaft.
I had to make something from an old spanner and a 24mm socket.
This allows me to get an 11mm spanner on the shaft top to counterhold it.
Tracking set up. Again...
Good to have this back on the road, it's currently my daily.
I really love a good 80's dash at night.
