Front Spheres

Post by Feelingdum »

As the name suggests, this is probably a dum question, but, here goes.
I have seen a lot of information about changing the rear suspension spheres, but not much on the front ones. Am about to replace both front and rear but would just like to clear up a query. Is the procedure the same for the front ones as it is for the rear, with regard to the pressure regulator and all.
I have seen the procedure that has been written about this but cannot find it now on here any help would be appreciated

The procedure is the same, it's just that the fronts are usually much easier to remove as they live in a much nicer environment! AFAIK, there's no need to crack them with the car running, but it won't do any harm, as the struts don't twist like the back ones.

Just set suspension to low, release the pressure in the system (the 12mm nut by the accumulator) then change them, tighten up the nut then carry out some citaerobics job done.
