4 - Strut mount bearing

 

thank so very much. well someone told me that im getting noise from my coilovers because i didnt install this. does anyone have experience in installing the strut mount bearing on coilovers???? also is there strut bearing for the rears????

thanks

 

Might wanna say what kind of coilovers ya got....

 

i got toser coilovers sorry sliped my mind
thanks for the reply

 

This is what a dead (well mortally wounded) strut bearing looks like.

 

so the rubber part is supose to be placed in on top of the coilovers right and then placed wheree the three blolts attach to the car. is the correct? and thanks for the pic

 

so it sits in between the coilover the strunt mount? is that right?

 

anyone............ a nd is it still ok to drive the car????? without messing it all up

 

I don't know much about coilovers but if you're reusing the upper spring seat or there is a spot in the coilover upper seat for it, I'd think that you need to use the bearing too. From their website, I only see the strut mount bracket:



Then again, I don't know much about Toser coilovers... you can always ask Chris'smax because I think he used to have em:

I have a setup of illuminas and H-techs.

If i were to change my strut bearings now, would i need to uncompress the spring or can i just change it?
