jellsta 0 Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 Hi all, just replaced my leaky front coilovers for some blue JOM ones, i seem to have a problem though. when i lower the car down the piston comes up out the top of the turret and protrudes so much that i can not sht the bonnet. i put them on the same way i had my old ones on but now this has happened??? any ideas guys cheers Link to post Share on other sites
david.hanagan 0 Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 Have you used the top mounts correctly? Link to post Share on other sites
jellsta 0 Posted April 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 yeah it all went back on the same way it came off. the only difference is the sleeve on the top of the coilover is a little thinner than the previous ones Link to post Share on other sites

HAMMER_VR6 0 Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 That top mount should be below that big bolt mate, not on top. Link to post Share on other sites
jellsta 0 Posted April 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 yeah looked like that, i took it all apart today to look at it again. seems i had the bearing in the wrong side of the rubber bush. all sorted now though cheers Link to post Share on other sites
