Hi Guys, The Gas Lift Struts for my hardcover have worn out, anyone know where to get replacements from other than ford?

excellent thanks, that's what I wanted to hear

My bad, attached now.

I have attached the picture of what I will be installing, By the looks of things Is the strut and it will just be a task of swapping no compressor required? I can just take out the lowered one as a whole and then swap with this?

Was hoping to buy one of the stanley ones from Super cheap auto tom orrow while they have 20% off.http://www.supercheapauto.com.au/online-store/products/Stanley-Coil-Spring-Compressor.aspx?pid=12548#Description Will this one work fine?

Hi Guys, I am going to replace my lowered springs and shocks in my bf mk2 with standards. Will I need a spring compressor to do this if I follow the guide that is pinned in this section? Can it be done without or is it worth buying one even if I will onyl use it once?

Can I get away without using a spring compressor to replace my lowered springs with a set of standard ones? If I do I will buy tomorrow when supercheap has 20% off. if not I will try without

how did you go with getting them to fix?

Should I be replacing bushes or anything at the same time while I got the leafs out? Going to give it a shot next weekend I have free. Anything else I may need to replace? I have been told in another thread I may need new shocks.

Hi Guys, I can find a guide for replacing the front shocks. Does anyone know if one exists or has been created for changing leaf springs in a ute? Thanks.

I actually just came on to post this issue with mine. I went away for 2 weeks and car was not driven in that time. I moved it to notice an oil patch in my garage. I got under my car and noticed it was leaking from the same spot as mentioned above. Could not tighten the bolts up any futher with an allen key it just kept slipping. I have since moved my car and it has not leaked for the past 3 days. SHould it sitting there undriven cause this? Ford Dealer has wiped my gearbox out in the past driving into thier workshop and replaced gasket 30 000k's ago. Any suggestions? Sorry to steal your thread also

Hi Guys, I know this is an old topic, Does anyone know if there are any guides for leaf spring replacement? similar to the front suspension one which has been done? I got some standard fronts and rears. Quoted $450 to raise at local pedders.

Here are some pics can someone tell from these what has been done? or do I need better pics? Added one to show height off exhaust

Took car in today for a wheel allignment, but apparently its too low to fit on the machine. Anyone else been told this? Can I go elsewhere or will I have this issue everywhere?
