lol what is there to disagree about with the metal cap thingies? I just left mine off when installing my strut bar/springs because it doesn't doing anything and is a pain to always take on and off. also if you have adjustable suspension u dont have to take everything off to adjust them.

Yeah, we agreed with you. But YOU try telling that to Tim when he's covered in sweat and grease and in full-on stubborn guy mode.

****in' eh man...

the nut on top of the strut wouldn't come off, and i had to go down the street to the MR2 turbo swap guy (me neighbor) so he could impact them off... only got the rears done, as rain was coming. (the ONE day i DON'T look at the weather)

Tomorrow, i finish the front, and i'm done... I might go down to Auto innovations to get an alignment. i'll see how that goes.
