Coilovers.

Just to clarify when I purchase my coils do I need to replace Rear LCA bushes aswell? or anything else? or should it fit straight in?

Thanks

If you are running stock bushes I would do it.

Same with rear engine mount.

Weak points that will eventually break and when replaced improve the overall front end feel.

Ok sweet probably replace it as I do the coils to save the headache as well.

Thanks for the tip :)

They aren't typically an easy DIY job, usually need a vice to do the job. I paid others, though forum members can better elaborate as to the tools needed. I suggest SeatSport ones, they are rubber so a bit softer than the superPro polyurethane ones. The rear engine mount is also called a dog bone mount, do your research as there's varying stiffness levels of the inserts, so will rattle and vibrate more. I haven't bothered with the dog bone mount on the daily, its still standard. Just know what you're offsetting by changing it.

I have this one for doing those bushes. It won't do the Superpro's straight out of the box. i have a little trick for them.

Had anyone tried the AP sports kit? Lowering but not coil overs?

Yes best to do the rear LCA bushes, they are crap VW items. I did the fronts too but really no need. Search this forum fie heaps of threads on it. Cheers Al
