01 upper mount bearings.

I've reused all of 02 strut upper mount assemblies and it was fine.
No noise.

No noise.
So did you use the '01 Upper mount bearings or did you simply just reuse every component of the '02 upper mount ?

I have a 02 and I installed my Tein SS when it first came out. I had no idea I need a a 01 bearing. I just use everything from my 02.
It had noise for a few months, then it just goes away. I have been using Tein SS for 2 years now, no problem at all!

I reused everything from 02 upper mounts assemblies, didn't even know about 01 bearings.

some people with 02s say that you dont need 01 parts and some say they do.

i say just get them to be sure so you wont have to take everything apart again in case you do need 01 parts. tehy're not that expensive anyway
