|  Felicia rear shock absorber torque settings I've just bought a 98 Felicia 1300 GLi Estate (only 27000 on clock) . Noticed it was leaning badly today and on close inspection found that the O/S rear shock absorber spring had pushed through the lower supporting cup. I've ordered new shock absorbers and want to fit them myself (spring compressors kindly lent). Please could someone advise me of the correct torque settings? Any other tips would be very much appreciated. Many thanks. |
