For those running Buddy club coil overs, what parts would i need to buy so that i don't have to dis-assemble my original shock/spring combo?


I'm thinking I only need 20, 12 and 10. 3, 18, 19, 14 go on top of the shock tower. And 13 just slips on and off. Thanks for the input!

Think this answers my question:

I just installed my F&F 2's in the rear, I'm installing the fronts this week. I'll get you some part numbers from my parts department once I am 100% sure what needs to be transferred. I also don't want to have to assemble/disassemble every time I swap suspension.

He means the top hat. Most coils don't come with the top hat meaning you have to disassemble your factory strut and re use it.

If you buy the parts that have to be transferred normally, then you can install the new front coilovers sojourn having to break out the spring compressor and dismount the factory spring/shock combo. The entire assembly can be swapped out. Make sense? I was asking because I just ordered a set of buddy clubs and would like to to be able to just perform a straight swap.

There, fixed it for ya. If a topic on a forum board doesn't make sense, it may not pertain to you.

I apologize for thread jacking with a post about parts. When I install my buddy clubs and dial in the settings I will update.
