They guy that installed them did not use the rubber sleeves from the old springs. Would that be a problem? Otherwise its great. Looks and rides great. Just hope the toks will last for at least 30k miles.

 

You mean the bumper assembly a.k.a. the 'dust covers'? The bumpstops were on the top of it, so I wonder how he got the strut assembly together correctly, unless you got new ones from the dealership.

 

the rubber sleeve is to prevent the spring from hitting directly on to the part of strut that's holding it. u shouldn't have any major problem except for hearing "clink" should when u go over a bump or somthing. i know this cuz the samething happend to me. Try ask the shop if they would reinstall them for u, it's them who messed up anywayz.

 

cool, i get mine done monday(same setup H&R/TOK) - any suggestions???

 

1.)Make sure they leave the rubber on the bottom of the spring perch.
2.)Get new dust covers/bumpstops if yours are ripped.
3.)Enjoy the drop.

 

Put those back on! They help prevent metal to metal contact. Unless if you like that.
