what else do i need?
Saturday, February 11, 2006 11:45 AM
okay i have tokico spec D's and goldline springs and want to put them on early spring but what else do i need so i dont have to take the old ones apart? i planned already for mounts but isnt there some rubber springs cup too that i might need? and a new top bolt?
thanks very much for the help i just want to unbolt the old ones and bolt on the new ones easy as possible and get an alignment.
thanks

Sounds like you have it all. Springs, struts, mounts, nut. Thats about it I think.

You'll have to take the old struts appart. There's a bump stop, shield, top-hat, spring insulators (top and bottom), bottom-hat, and strut nut that all have to come off the old ones.

I believe that KYB makes a set for our cars. Pretty sure you can get them from turbotechracing

i used all my stock mounts. The struts should have come with new bolts. Its recomended that you replace them, but not everyone does..

I used the stock mounts, they were still good, when I last worked on my car. Aftermarket mounts are just the same as stock; don't go out finding the most expensive.....
