Changing Driver side Shock Absorber On Ford Transit T260 HELP PLEASE!?
Dear all I am currently on a euro trip in the south of france and the spring around my driver side front shock absorber has snaped and caved in!
I have friends local to the area helping me search scrappy's for a replacement.
I imagine i need to replace the entire shock, but is there anything I should be aware of or any difficulties i might come across while changing it over?
if you dont have spring compressors then you may be better just changing the whole strut assy if you can source one from a scrappy,you have to pull back the mat on top of the driverside foot well to get to the nuts there,think they are 13mm,not too bad a job to do if you are just replacing the strut.
