If you pm me your e-mail address I will forward you the procedure.

If you do it wrong you will need to get the vehicle tracking re-done

Hi there
Read the thread just now and would appreciate your advice / help as we have just suffered a broken fron offside srping. Where's the best and cheapest place to get a new pair please? If you could send me the procedure, I'd be very grateful.

have sent the required info. If you have done this before it should be familiar enough.

I would try somebody like GSF parts for the spring. They are always good value, and decent quality.

Bolt that holds uper wishbone links (nut 1 in diagram) can be a bit of a sod to undo.
