Default Who got new Konis?

I need to find lower strut coil insulator. I want to put in all new parts with my new install. Did anyone use new parts or did you just use your old ones? Not shure witch ones or where to get them.

I reused my old lower isolators. They were in good condition. I bought new upper isolators as these tend to get crappy over the years. I recommend Moog parts.

Yeah, they come with the lowers, but not the insulators between the spring and the spring seat. The old insulators can more than likely be reused on the new setup though... if you bother taking the old stuff apart.

Check out RockAuto. Under "Suspension" -> Coil Spring Seat

I got the Monroes myself when I installed the Koni/Strano setup last year. I don't remember how the OEM insulator is, soft rubber? But the Monroes are hard plastic. I'm not sure if it actually matters.

Originals are also harder plastic.
