As title, I'm looking for a pair of these for the front suspension struts, as it would seem that the Cusco Pillow Ball mounts I have fitted added 20 to 30mm to my ride height that I can't compensate for with my adjustable spring platforms

Unhappy

David, the springs are short enough as it is, unfortunately the Cusco mounts are all below the suspension turret and there's just no material that can be machined off to reduce the height by more than about 5mm. The best drop I could therefore acheive would be about 15mm, I need at least 30mm to avoid having to raise the rear, and I'll still be able to get 2 fingers between the wheel and arch

I've had a price which is a bit for some Group A mounts (all be it new ones) and have a choice of specs: Gravel, Tarmac and Saffari!
