    Replacing steering damper.

    Do I need any special tools for replacing my steering damper? Any tips on making sure the job goes smoothly? Looks pretty simple, but wanted to be prepared before I start, as every time I do a job on the car for the first time, I find it was never as straight forward as I thought it would be. But - maybe that is just me, lol...

    Right way up?!?! It is fitted horizontally, and can only go in one way - pin on one end, hole in the other...

    I am fitting a TJM...

    OK. On a disco it is not strictly horizontal and instead on a slight slope. The big end is uphill so water can drain, etc.

    So what are you waiting for?
