I'm putting the front suspension back together and I dont' remember which end of the mounts goes up. Is the side that's up here the side that contacts the underside of the car?
Thanks, Kevin Attached image(s)

Gint, Thanks !!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
QUOTE The roller bearings require work to the actual "cup" that they sit in... but bolt up FINE with No alignment issues to the stock mounts. Maybe. I think the problem was very tight tolerances. So, the alignment need to be very exact. If the front bearing cant twist in the mount, the same problems exist wit roller bearings. QUOTE Maybe the mounting location at the front of the body was slightly off because of the oilcooler opening in the front trunk floor? This is very interesting question. I have thought about it too. If this is what have happen, then I can only highly warn everybody who are going to do anything like that. But, now after all the problems and effort I am very happy with them. I can hardly wait to have first test drive.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |
