Front spring fitting?

Post by quest63 »

So at long long last I believe I have all the bits to build up and fit my front struts. (I'll detail my painful journey with a particular company later)

I have a couple of questions please. I have new KYB springs does it matter which way up they go as they seem to look the same either end?

Do I just make sure the little bit of writing on them is the correct way up?

Also when the front struts are assembled and the centre bolt tightened can you still turn the top mount by hand to make sure you can line up the bolts at the top and the forks at the bottom to fit them?

Thanks in advance

Gary
