    Re: adjustable top mounts

    Just a word of warning guys, the saxo and 106 buys have a had a few problems with these. I think most of the problem was combrake sending the wrong ones out!

    Had the same problem with compbrake sending me the wrong ones had to send them back twice and there is no telling if the ones I have now will fit, I dont have a rattle gun to get the top nut off.

    I have had a set of phase 2 ones from compbrake, fitted first time and delivered on time, so sometimes they can get it right..

    Re: adjustable top mounts

    Usually, if you look at the threaded rod where the nut goes, there is a cutaway, I think you can get a 10-12mm spanner on there to stop the rod from spinning.

    Then get a swan neck spanner on there, jobs a good'un

    Oh bugger that, bring it to me, I'll lower it, I mean, fit it

    Once they are fitted theres not a lot to look at as they are under the strut top. Unless you have modified the strut top for it to sit on top.

    Re: adjustable top mounts

    Not to hand..... Are fairly large mounts though and the bearing case raised part is a lot more slimmed down than I was expecting..

    it's just the tops and struts that have to match isn't it? I'm pretty sure the hubs are the same for both
