Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation requires removing the strut assembly from the vehicle, which necessitates the use of a spring compressor to safely disassemble the unit. Ensure you have the correct service manual for your specific vehicle model to follow the required torque specifications for the mounting bolts.
Compatibility includes but is not limited to: Opel/Vauxhall Corsa, Astra, Meriva, Zafira, and Combo series. As this kit is supplied without a bearing, inspect your old bearing during disassembly; if it feels gritty or exhibits excessive play, replace it with a new unit before reassembly. For long-term care, avoid aggressive off-road driving and ensure that surrounding dust boots are kept intact to protect the mount from debris.
