Help Removing Front Shocks...

Well I lowered my last car myself and I'm going to give the Z4 a go!

The back looks exactly the same process but the front looks a little different, in that the top strut mount is different....

Can anyone give me a quick guide through what I need to do?!

Thanks in advance...

You have a spring compressor and a large assortment of metric tools? The steps are easy, compress spring, unbolt strut from tower, unbolt clamp bolt at the bottom and use key to spread, pull strut out.


Not so easy in the actual execution.
