  • Need some Mk3 GL Coilovers

    Hi everyone,

    I am looking for some coilovers for my GL Classic. I'm new here and I'm not sure if there is another thread regarding this matter for the hatchbacks. I'm sorry if there is..

    Anyways, I found these on ebay but the seller says they dont fit the hatchbacks.

    I was wondering is there any specifics when looking for coilovers for the hatchback?

    OR

    Is there anyone on here that would be happy to sell their one to me?

    Thanks for your help!

            Also, I just wanted to know what are the other things i need when doing a coilover upgrade? Some say bushes and bearings..

            Please point me in the right direction as to all the things i need to do when swapping out coilovers!

              strut top bushes and strut top bearings. Not only saves you from needing to disassemble your existing struts, but will save you pulling the coils out in a few hundred km when the old bushes start to make noise

                Thanks for your reply dylan8. Would these be okay?



                OR

                Front upper strut mount with bearing. FITS all 1985-1996 Mk2/Mk3 Golf/Jetta 4-cyl. PRICED EACH. Order qty 2 for Front suspension. NOTE: There is a split in 1996 models, this part fits up to VIN #T07
