Broken front spring

[mikesthedaddy1]

How hard is it to replace a strut or spring on from drivers side mine has just snapped and I need car asap need cheap parts or cheap coil overs

[mikesthedaddy1]

Found some coil.overs on ebay for 250 would I have to get bearings aswell or are the a straight fit

Don't know what's in that kit of yours, but if the spring broke it could indicate that the top bearing has seized. Also, the bearing is not that expensive so I think I'd replace it when having the damper out anyway.

Gone for apex lowering spring at £122 then replacing both bearings as it was the bearing that caused the damage I'll put a.pic up when it's fin a before and after

Good call, My mate has coilovers on his 406 coupe, told him no to. But he did and he regrets it now. I have apex springs and they improve the car no end. Used Apex before and swear by them, great balance of comfort, performance and price. Not too hard but just firm enough. My bearings were shagged to hell when I took the struts out. They dropped to bits and the ball bearings went everywhere.
