I will be installing the Tokico Illumina kit, and wanted to know if Ben's mounts
are necessary? I will be putting new front mounts, bearings, & f&r boots.
Anything else I should install or not even bother changing?


Thanks,

umm i have installed bens strut mounts before and from what i have seen they are really not that necessary. But if you do want that extra inch of travel make sure you change that lil black bushing that is under the top hat -it sometimes pancakes and actually squeeks when installed-just go to nissan they are like $4 each -that should be it really. hope that helped

 

^^ those bushings come with the tokico struts.

 

what is that part called exactly.

 

It's a rubber bushing part# 56218-61L10

 

Yeah my rear setup with Bens mounts squeak. I've seen a writeup/topic about this before, but what exactly is it? Is it rubbin against the strut or what? So, all I would need to do to fix this is buy these $4 rubber bushings from Nissan and I'll be squared away or what? Lemme know, thanks.
