the collar slides over the shock and sits on the shock perch. The coil then slides over the shock and sits on the coil perch. Then your top hats go on

ok, cool cause it just seemed funny how when i put the spring and everything on, the spring and everything seemed to float around.

edit: just realized i need to do the oring mod so the sleeve doesnt have room to move around.
edit2: I have the top hats LOL, I need the strut mounts from my stock shocks.

Can someone pealse give me more details im hella confused...

thanks, I started to do that on one(I'm only using 3 o-rings), and realized i didnt have vacilene or how ever you spell it. So ill complete that tomorrow. After looking around I have pretty much figured out what i need. Just need the strut mounts and washers.

o really? well ill see how things go...I'm not going to slam the car since I'll be riding on stock wheels., dont they have a life time warrenty?

edit: OMG JUST REALIZED THIS POST IS MY 666th POST!!!!!!!!!!!
