I've been a div - need help bugeye springs!
Hi,
I've discovered the hard way that Blobeye rear springs don't fit a bugeye strut
I brought blobeye STI shocks (no tops) and springs in seperate auctions on the bay and assumed, stupidly, that they'd be ok. We fitted the fronts last week and they were ok, but got to the rears today and found that the springs taper and the ones we took off don't!
The options are:
1. Start all over again with shocks and springs
2. Get new bugeye springs, assuming that the shocks themselves aren't any different and fit them all round
3. Get Blobeye rear strut tops and fit those assuming that they'll then fit the car!
Advice please!
TIA
Ian
