    Urgent: Need help on swapping 88 metals to 89+ plastics

    Does anyone have a write up on this?
    Also, the rear struts I got seem to have the mounting face tilted to one side, rather than going in straight on like the old ones. I got them from the euro depot.

    This is my rear end. Those struts are the original ones and no longer attached.

      Holy rusted ass shit.

      Its basicly a plug and play swap Jared, what more help do you need?

      My shocks aren't rounded on the mounting plate like that.. all the 89+ plastic shocks I've seen are square base and black.

        but are the mounting faces tilted?
        The ones I got are not perpendicular to the strut
