Fantastic and informative. Very well shot. Simple job; Inspires people do more for themselves instead of paying rip off garage bills. I am a great fan of Powerflex products. Always fit how they should. They make such a difference from stock parts which are pants.

[@LR180]

Thank you for the very positive feedback I really appreciate it buddy ☺️

[@mikehennessy9495]

Yeah, I completely agree with you. I am soon to be purchasing a set of these, and had a look under my car and started to contemplate whether I should take it to a garage in order for them to fit these isolaters, but after watching this video... absolutely nae chance its going in! Can happily say you've probably saved me a few notes! Very good content, keep it up pal.

[@LR180]

@@mikehennessy9495 thank you very much I appreciate it massively! I'm only starting my channel back up again and it's hard but when getting comments like this it keeps me going 😁

[@markwgoldsmith]

Really good video, thank you: I'm half way through, the wheels are being refurbed so I opted to compress the springs to get them out of the way, as dropping to the ground wasn't an option. The old isolators were so knackered there was trace body colour paint on the top of the spring...

[@PowerflexSuspensionBushes]

Great work, glad you liked them 👍

[@Mk2Mitch]

Great video, my ST I’m picking up next week has these advised on the previous mot 👍🏻

[@LR180]

Yeah man get it done trust me well worth the money. You will noticed such a difference 😃

[@craig1996]

what's symptoms of these being bad without checking? mine's down in the garage and i cba to get it out to check 😂

[@mikehennessy9495]

Good detailed video, cheers pal👍

[@LR180]

Thank you buddy

[@JR-be1jf]

Great job! Do you think I can do it using coil spring clamps instead of taking it apart?

[@neilgraves5069]

Helped me out big time this buddy . Thanks . Liledcsaved and subbed . 👍

[@thomasmason8481]

Yep I’ve had 2 mk7 STs and first thing I do is look at these, if the cars more than 5 years old they will be knackered

[@highonoctane5789]

Were you getting squeaking noises on the interior? Like mad squeaking noises? I think I have this issue

[@x58evo2puma7]

Good job mate I must get a set of these I bet it was hot doing that job and look like it dosnt take long to do the work can’t wait till u get stage3 intercooler on that mate well done 👍

[@LR180]

LR 180 yes mate that will be can’t wait to see it mate

[@andrewvellosa5524]

Helpful video thanks

[@elliot7573]

The second isolator you installed the nipple was on the inside hole as the first was on the outer,would that make any difference?

[@ecjaye]

Adding new bilstein shocks this a no brainer to add the POWERFLEX Rear Coil Spring Pads!

[@3abdangry]

thanks so much for this video you made me more confident doing it myself, but is the ride now harder with these new material?

[@LR180]

I’m glad it’s helped you buddy. I didn’t find that it was a harder ride mate just the rear was slightly higher… but if u have coilovers then that’s not a problem as u can just lower it down

[@Antonino-C]

Is the car now harder?

[@yoric6939]

Hi mate great post 👍🏽going to be fitting these myself shortly and this has helped considerably, quick ask mate, you said you got the Eibach Redlines, I’m thinking of getting the springs changed at the same time all round ovs but was wondering how these compare to the Eibach pro kit? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated mate, I appreciate I’m late to the party on this but hey ho lol

[@LR180]

Hey mate, I find that all Eibach springs are top quality and will always recommend them. I’m even running coilovers their springs on my Focus ST 👍🏽

[@c_red_edition9587]

Is there such thing as a bad spring isolator? Mine seems to be rubbing I think 😆

[@MHBGT]

Great video, very easy to follow. Would you say these made the ride a bit harder on your car?

[@JamalKhan-jj6pq]

Hey mate did this stop the screetching noise by any chance

[@LR180]

Sure did buddy!

[@mikegaming3826]

what do they actually do?

[@LR180]

Last a last longer than the stock more solid

[@ThijsAJAX1]

Hello, Question: What about the bottom ones? Dont they have to ve replaced?

[@LR180]

They don’t need to be replaced if they are still in ok condition but it’s up to you mate!

[@Harleyforever20]

I just put them on my car a few days ago. Just wondering have you noticed any squeaking associated with poly bushes?

[@LR180]

Hey dude, no i did not notice any squeaking from mine

[@jokebre]

Mine have never made a noise either. Been on over a year or more.

[@Harleyforever20]

@@jokebre thanks, good to know.

Could you give me the link or page to buy these products for my St 2014 party?

Just look up on Google mate - powerflex rear isolators fiesta ST180

[@ryeguy88]

My only complaint is it adds some ride heigh to the rear compared to the oem.

[@LR180]

I completely agree but they needed doing and wanted to upgrade them

[@elliot7573]

@@LR180how much more height are we talking ?

[@altrampo5860]

Where did you buy these? could you post link plz.

I found distributor in my city... do you have part number?

Airtec mate

[@SmDWeed]

What problem/ noise were you experiencing with these faulty isolators?

[@LR180]

Hey, it was like a grounding kinda noise like metal on metal as that’s basically what it was doing. Hope this shabby explanation help lol

[@noobasdfjkl]

The end of your spring on top is not sitting against the tab on the isolator properly.

[@Andrew_gta691]

My st has a knocking sound from the rear wonder if this could be the cause

[@LR180]

Yeah bro mine made all kinda weird sounds deffo worth checking it out
