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

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?
