Need help with struts (assembling)
Friday, March 27, 2015 1:27 PM
So, I kind of need some help. I picked up what I thought was everything I needed to build a new set of struts for my car, and I took all the parts over to an automotive shop that has done struts before. Unfortunately what they're telling me is they cannot get the fronts together, mainly due to something not working right. Sounded like the lower coil spring insulator. And instead of telling me what exactly needs to be done or what they need, they want me to go get a set of Gabriel Ready Struts so they can put my Eibach lowering springs on them. I'm not spending that kind of money so I can sit on, basically a brand new set of struts. I guess what I'm looking for is some insight or possibly someone whom can help me put these together whether its their garage or a recommendation of a garage.

Here's the parts I have:

Eibach Lowering springs 3860.140
KYB GR2 Front Struts 334316
KYB GR2 Rear Struts 341244
Duralast Rear Strut mounts 142413
Duralast Front Strut Mounts 143035
Duralast Front Dust boots 143037
Duralast Front lower coil spring insulators 14660

From the looks of it, Everything should have been there, but I've never done struts before. Any help would be appreciated.

I need an adultier adult.
