installed Konis for rear on Sedan need help.

Hi, i really need some help.!! hehe..i just got my konis and its sitting on the lower perch so i know that its in the right one. Now the question is...does that cup that holds the spring (for the rear) goes facing up, or facing down, facing up meaning that it looks like the stock one, or the other way around.

thank you [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

hey lucky for you i went through this already , the cup is supposed to face down, i had mine facing up and when i put on my sportlines it was super high, higher than stock on the low perch. So leave the cup facing downward with the perch on the lower setting. HTH

hmm, maybe I misunderstood your question. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

Well, anyways, that's a pic of the OEM strut taken apart, if that helps any. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/IMG]
