Hi Guys,

I have a 2013 Toyota Corolla LE 1.6. Do you have the biltein strut shock
for this car? Im planning to lower my car around 1.5 Front and 1.5 Rear
using H and R lowering springs.

Thanks,
Rolf

Your video is great for showing the methods of changing these parts, but I
was disappointed that a torque wrench didn’t come out once. I have used
“German torque” many times, but try to stay away from it for suspension
components.

I thing that the top nut on that new shocks must be bolt down in spesifik
tension with a torcue-tool { sorry for my english } , because it has to do
with the bount and rebount of the shock
I put the same suspencion set BILSTEIN yellow and EIBACH black , and the
gay on the shop used air tool like you not torcue-tool like the manoual of
the BILSTEIN shocks suggest and the car felt like a STONE
Not need to mention that after 200-330 miles the same bold again must be
re-bolted with more presure with the torck tool until “set down” properly
Again sorry for my english and plese replay if you feel like thx

Awsome video. I have a question. When changing front and rear springs do
they go in just on one way. I dont wanna install them upside down.
