Yeah the MK4/MK3 widow maker is widely known for causing havoc worldwid, just make sure you're parked on level ground LOL

The air line. You will need a shorty. Make sure you have some scrap wood or someone else to help you hold the strut while you loosen that air line screw. It was a pain in the ass to do one handed. So I bungee chord a piece of 2x4 to it to hold it up. The area remaining for the air line was quite tight, and I used a shorty flare wrench. Can't imagine using and adjustable spanner. Those shits piss me off, have to reset them every time.

What are you running far as spacers on your X ?Love the stance :thumbup:

Hey so Pat just texted me and I'm guessing I know the answer but if his shit was airing out and leaking up top by the top of the tower when he replaced.

Is it safe to say there is something wrong with the new Arnott?

I had started a Strut DIY thread as linked below for my 4.8is. Somebody posted a good DIY YouTube in that thread.

If leaking out the top somewhere, I'd checkt he air hose connection first of all (just in case). Otherwise could be a dodgy airbag.

I was going to suggest a cheap electric impact gun for the strut bottom bolts from HF
