top mount and bearing plus coil spring. grease up the bearing if poss and be careful when reassembling as the bearing must go in flush up against the rubber mount holder whilst releasing the spring. if not it will need to come off again. or separate as one of mine did ,after fitting, that was the type with the plastic bearing race that i fitted new ...

good luck.

just add as well that make sure the coil end is located in its correct end stop position,otherwise you will have issues with droplink threads and the coil may spin or break eventually....
