Changing shock absorber inserts.

Rebuilding my suspension on my Toyota MR2 turbo.
I'll show you how on my last one. You need rebudable struts

One thing that bothers me is the insert cartridge has play in the tube. Doesn't matter up top with the new nut forcing that to center, but keeping it centered in the bottom concerns me at least until I tighten the new retaining nut on. I guess maybe just wind some thick tape around them a few inches from the bottom until it just snugs in? Seems like they should have provided a sleeve sized just right for that difference, but oh well. lol

no play. proper tight

Comes to something when a DIY'er such as yourself knows to torque stuff down and that in turn has taught me that stuff does need to be torqued yet supposedly pro garages that I've paid good money to to work on my car just air gun bolts down and wonder why I go back complaining bolts fall out of wheels!

Did you like the ride quality of the kyb exel-g? And is it better than oem ride quality or just as good?

[@lloydy___8720]

BUY A TRIPOD!! Sweet video though

[@NewbieMechanic]

Tripod would be good cause it's a pain trying to record this stuff. I feel like buying a head mounted camera

[@chraven69]

Definitely good video, glad i see it.

[@RyuHayabusa06]

Good video. What kind of springs did you use? OEM or lowering springs?

[@NewbieMechanic]
