Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Trying to put in new PSS10 stuff tonight on the rear but the rear shock just won't play ball. I loosened the nuts at the top of the strut inside the car, un-bolted the bottom of the shock where it joins the wheel assembly but the pin holding it in is stuck half way through being pushed out , just won't budge. Now the strut is in a position where probably can't push it back through either, Any tips ? Cheers Sean

POST 3Original post

You do have a spring compressor on the springs? I hope so, you need one.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Yeah got a spring compressor, the damn thing nearly killed me getting the bolt out of that side, I'd say 2hrs on that side, 45 mins on the other. PSS10's installed on the rear, will have to wait until tomorrow night to do the fronts. Cheers sean
