I dropped both front struts today and would like some opinions on what my findings are. 87 w/ Boge
1. I can push shock shaft all the way to the bottom an hear it bottom out, pretty easy.
2. Shaft rises about 4" very slow in about 12 sec. then stops
3. I can pull it the rest of the way to the top again with clunk and that doesn't take to much effort either.
4. Some play on shaft side to side at top, middle and low positions
Spent or what?
Do new inserts come with shaft fully extended and if I push them down will they rebound all the way back up?
Next would be to remove gland nut ( with pipe wrench ?) remove old insert and oil then put in some HD Bilsteins?
Do I use old gland nut or does new inserts come with new nut?
Thanks in advance
Bob
