Hi, basically the rear shocks are shot to st on my Golf. I have ordered new shocks and springs for the rear and shall do the fronts next month.

Is there anything else that I need? Am I going to need to replace any bushes at the same time?

I am aware that changing the top mounts would be a good idea so shall probably be ordering those aswell, I just wanted to check with the PH collective before I start taking things apart!

hehe Tbh I couldn't think of the word for dampers, the only thing I could think of was shocks. Was a little bit of a rush job.

Cheers for the advice regarding the bushes. I was going to do those anyway, the question was aimed more at whether I should do the top mounts at the same time as everything else.

@SSM Its done 130k and the rear left damper is definately past it
