Anyone fitted top mounts to shocks&springs?

[Grant]

Any point in them if your just going to set them to standard?

The point would be that OE top mounts are wank...... so it would still be an upgrade.


I guess it wouldnt foul the turret sides it you were just running standerd camber

/\ above is correct, I have them atm on my coilovers, However im removing them to fit some b8's so i thought why use the crummy standard top mounts when i have my compbrakes still ^,^

True, the shocks would not foul in that case, but you would not be able to get the top of the spring to seat against anything.

The camber adjustable/eccentric top mounts rely on the spring reducing to a surface diameter of about 15mm through the use of a conical spring top washer. Something you would have to have machined up bespoke, as I do not know of anyone who makes them, for the reason that there is no point.


Just buy some SKF top mount bearings. They should last just fine.
