Front strut removal and spring change

[alundra]

For the front strut I have only the cartridge (KYB Gr2); how change them?

i dunno, the shocks arent uprated, but just in better con then the ones already on there.......

Alundra, basically you need to empty the Inner part of the original strut of Oil and the piston rod. Then drill a hole in the bottom of the strut so that when you insert the cartridge you can bolt it in place to the original housing. Then put large nut back on the strut, hey presto...

has anybody on here tried putting auto transmission fluid in their front shocks as on silvia gods site, to firm them up.....?
