Chimp Choker Posted February 1, 2022 Report Share Posted February 1, 2022 did this to my convertible, simples to do only issue is if the hydraulic rams are worn, you may wat to replace, not expensive either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any pics would help . I have just fitted new rams to my cab and can not see enough room to fit the springs. Mart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
incredirog Posted March 12, 2022 Report Share Posted March 12, 2022 (edited) I can’t remember exactly but it must be that the nobble bits on the end unscrew from the ram, don’t scratch the ram by holding it with metal tools though or you’ll wreck the strut. practice on the old ones if you still have them.

martauto Posted March 30, 2022 Report Share Posted March 30, 2022 I noticed that when closing the boot there seems to be not enough room for springs so I am at a loss, any ideas please ? Mart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
