Im looking for the best place to find strut tower mounts for the struts. The only one i've seen are KYB strut mounts from tirerack for 11 for the front and 12 for the rear. Why am I getting these? I'll spill the beans soon...

And..dont worry about it, hopefully in the next week or so i'll have it done and post some updates.
I have a feeling its not tokico... has an e and an i in the middle maybe?

screw the spring compressor. just put the spring between your feet, and put the top hat up against something sturdy like a wall or fence, and stand clear of the strut. watch that shit fly baby.
haha. Go laugh when you see what I have in store for my accord.
I dont really have time to go to the junkyard so I figure I'm just going to use my stock hats. screw it.
stock hats will work on after market shocks right?

Hurry up... we need another pic thread with the new suspension.haha. Go laugh when you see what I have in store for my accord.
Yup... aftermarket shocks will mount up exactly the same as factory shocks.stock hats will work on after market shocks right?

i just went to the junkyard with a rental spring compressor and got the top hats for cheap. the guy at the cashier office was confused how I got it off since they don't sell those things by itself and usually sell the whole strut assembly.
oh well..hopefully experimentation starts this weekend... >=)
What's so specal about Tein?
nothing really but they got great coilovers as well as great customer service in terms of rebuilding struts/shocks.
tein wow post some pics
skunk is known for great products but a still ride..tein is known for great products with a nice smoother ride.
