Eibach Sportlines/Koni Yellow strut mount question '03
Friday, November 05, 2010 4:27 AM
Hi there guys,
I ordered the Eibach Sportlines and Koni Yellow combo, and i'll be installing those in a week or 2. I have a '03 Cavi and while i have the thing apart i think it would be a good idea to replace all the strut mounts. Are the Monroe mounts ok to use or is there a better chioce? The Monroe 904919 for the front and Monroe 902949 for the rears is what i'm looking at.
Thanks
Don

the monroe's are stock replacements. not intended for a drop, but they'll be better than the original one's you have in.

the other choice would be to look at O.E.M.'s site. mark sells aftermarket custom made front and rear mounts.

Stock replacement rear strut mounts will not fit Yellows. You must drill out the sleeve in the mount. It's actually quite retarded if you ask me. A nice solid rear strut mount would be good in this scenerio.

Also I highly suggest going with 95-99 front strut mounts opposed to 00-05 when going O.E. style. MUCH better design and less problems down the road.

Just an idea and suggestion. Sell those yellows before you use them and order some Tokico D-specs. Full replacement strut opposed to Koni's hack setup. Koni put NO thought into making J-body suspensions. I would never give them another dime of my money.

Just trying to help!
