Changing springs - What else do I need?

[BEEFTEC]

Impulse buy the other day - Set of new Eibach springs!

Going to fit them over the weekend hopefully, so just checking what I need?

I've got a range of tools for most jobs, and i've ordered a set of spring compressors and an offset 18mm spanner to access the top mount nut easier.

Anything else I need?

I've read the clio manual and it mentions replacing the Nyloc nuts used on the shock unit, but doesn't mention sizes. Anybody know the sizes of the nuts so I can order some?

Just got home and had a look at the manual again and its the shock absorber rod nut and the upper lock nut of the anti-roll bar tie-rod ball joint that I need sizes for if anyone knows?

If not i'll just order M6, M8, M10 and M12 and hope that covers it :lol:

M12 buddy

Thanks mate, i'll get them ordered!

Read it wrong shock is m12 droplink is m8 I think, (not 100%) might be worth getting a selection as you might aswel replace the anti-rotation link one aswel m10

Yeah i've ordered M8-M14 so should be covered :lol:
