Im getting s/r struts, drop zone coils. all new boosts and bump stops. as well as upper mounts. what about the upper spring cups? you know, the thing the that holds the top of the spring...do i just reuse these from my factory struts? dont see them listed on any site.
thanks for any help.

i thought the adaptor thingy was just 3rd gen strut mounts? which 2g's could be bored to work find.
im talking about the spring perch, what the spring its self presses against.

i went and looked, the adaptor thingy is the upper spring seat.

so is it just me or does the rear just have a strut mount that is also the spring seat?

i had no probs, been over a couple years now.. eibach's w/ s/r's

just make sure you get yourself some 3rd gen escort top spring perch mounts out of the jy, they'll come with the metal top bearings that you will need since the s/r's have a larger shaft diameter.. what i pulled out of a zx2, since the rubber was ripped out of my mounts I went ahead and grabbed them, also seemed to have more rubber to them
