Pull it back apart the black wedge plastic retainer that bearing assembly goes on isn't orientated properly which will cause excessive positive camber while turning.

son of a bitch, i thought something didnt look right the other day, i was sitting outside looking at the car and swore that it looked like positive camber in the front. Getting sick and tire of taking this front suspension apart.

Yea, much *** pain long ago from my own experience on this. Nothing more depressing. Thats why im on coilovers now lol. I ******* hate strut assemblies.

Why the hell does every strut mount say not for 18 inch wheels. There has to be a difference. WTF. That's a lot of work to keep taking that ****** thing apart to dick with it.

Sure enough, they were rotated the wrong way, no alignment markers either, fortunately i had the old ones.

Just use the picture for reference on where the wedge angle needs to go

There's not a difference I've had ever manufacturer strut mounts apart when I turn them into coilover Mounts for people. The only difference is bushing size which does not effect performance or shape and placement of the strut

I take it your running the coilover strut package from zzp with the 30mm sway bar so you dont need the link tabs on the strut?

I think he made his own, I'd like coil overs when I lower lol

Negative I built my own coilversion and have custom spherical bearinged camber plates I ride on my old thread is on here somewhere. And no I have 34mm front sway. My goal was to have everything suspension related built before I throw a additional 250whp on this chasssis

Good deal! So now you have to get it realigned?
