About getting the assembly to clear the fender when taking the strut/springs out, all you have to do is have a friend stand on the rotor to move it down enough to get the strut/springs to clear the fender. You have to put a good amount of weight on it to get enough room but when you let up it just pops right back up...they are spring loaded to move to the top when there is no pressure on them.

Hey, have a few questions about koni yellow shocks. I received mine and I am wondering if we just put the spring seat onto the height adjustable circlip? On a Integra DIY, it shows a ring being placed on top the circlipe first, shown below.
Circlip only
Ring on top circlip
My shocks didn't come with any circlip. ARe they supposed to? And final question is in the following pic, you'll see a white washer and the bumpstop on the shock shaft. HOW do you get the washer there? The hole isn't big enough to go on there. The bumpstop isn't either. Any help would be great, thanks.

When i talked to the the workers at neuspeed over the phone i asked them why is my car riding up so high. He said do not sue the bumpstops the only thing that should be in there is the white little clip that comes with the kit thats it do not use the stops they will actually damage that strut and make your car ride like shit trust me i know this ive been there before.

As far as the bumpstops and white clip, the bumpstops do fit. You just gotta muscle them down. The white clip should have a break in it. It is bendable so just bend it onto the shock at the bottom past the round metal weld where the silver spacer is in your pic above.Last edited by H23Accord; 04-09-2006, 03:00 PM."This is a jaded bunch.
