Group N' rear tops on AST's?
What does it take to convert my Cusco Camber Plates to Group N tops on my AST Sportline 2's rears? Danielle

Group N rules dont allow change of strut tops so they will be standard tops.
You can however get standard looking, stiffer rubber variants !
Depending if the ones you get are the pressed layered metal type or the very new single layer topmount as to whether you need to file a small amount out of the hole.
Other than that they'll fit straight on.

Sir we have the N' tops sitting here already. So NO extra hardware is needed...no spacers or nothing? The Cusco plates are good as gone and moving on to N's w/Camber Bolts...cant' take the noise on my 650 mile commute up to the elders in IDAHO, Dani'

There are a few types of AST in existance Dani.
If spacers were needed they they will have come with the kit.
Curtis redesigned the strut tops so we could delete the spacers.
Did you buy the kit new, did you get any spacers in the kit?
You should not need anything extra to fit the AST's to standard / group N top mounts.

second hand...they were originally puchased in May of this year and I did not get anything but the strut and tools. Sportline 2's. ALSO can you ask CURTIS if he has the tracking # for the 40nm springs I oredered? I never got a tracking# on that set. Last name Whitmyre going to Soda Springs CA. If you dont mind. Good news if they bolt right up....I really don't want to go on a squirrel hunt for spacer and such, thanks Danielle
