  1. Ok
    So last Monday, I noticed on driving to work that my front nearside damper was on its way out.
    I ordered up a pair from Mister auto.

    I thought bargain. Only to be used on standard chassis. That’s ok I’ve not got a cup version.
    So the struts were delivered on Friday. Yesterday (Saturday) I removed the old knackered one and attempted to replace with the new one.
    To no avail. The new damper was far to narrow to fit.
    On inspection I also noticed that the spring was broken. Just my luck!
    So I need so advise - where should I purchase a pair of front shocks / struts dampers or what ever people are callling them these days, and a spring. Both the spring and shock had a red paint mark on them. I did notice a few years ago on the of side had the same marks.
    I do need them ASAP as the mot ran out yesterday.
    Regards
    Danny
