Anybody have any pics of PA Racing Coil over kits

I have the coil overs, but not sure in what order they go on. I have no pics on how they look or install. Please mail me or post how they look on the car. I am not sure if the threaded part goes up or down on the strut..there is a spacer i am not sure about. Please let me know.

thanks

are you talking about the little metal shims? they are to space the spring.

as far as the threaded part? what color is the sleeve? is it blue anodized? if so it shouldn't matter how the sleve sits as it's threaded an equal amount. just make sure to put the perch (collar or whatever the coil spring sits on) on right so that the spring will sit flat.

take a step back and look at it all, the parts that matter can only really go one way. the other parts can go any which way.

good luck.

spacer

The spacer i was talking about is like a 2" long piece alum tubing.it will slide down over the strut piston. i wonder what it does. I wonder if it prevents the strut from bottoming out?..not sure

let me know
