[@longbar2344]

wow look at all the clean threads lol

[@longbar2344]

no mention of preloading the trailing arms

[@punaniexpert77]

3:00 Shouldnt it be torqed when the suspension is level? I mean the rubber bushing will always be on tension when the wheel is on the ground.

[@autodocuk]

Yeah, you are right. Your comment will be useful to many viewers.

[@jhlincoln4126]

How when the bolts in a recess?

[@marzocchi705]

you simply align it level before you torque on the workbench.

[@bogdanhairan4695]

HI. where can i find that nut what is holding the handbrake cable plastic bracket on the trailing arm?i have ordered from autodoc but didn"t come with pop nut.thank you

[@concon3717]

Are these the same as a mk5 golf as I have one for breaking for my mk6

[@gaffnaldo1]

Id imagine they are slightly different but possibly the same set up

[@MarkoKatanic22]

same, i have a mk6

[@andrewharper3165]

Yep same as mk 5 , just attempted to change the rear trailing arms on my wife's mk 5 golf . Getting the roll bar nut off is not as easy as in this video. Dirt corrosion etc, not easy at all.

[@shanemcguire3367]

Where would I get the bit on the breakers bar that acts as a rachet
