ok so i installed my coilover springs onto my OE strut and it wont slide down all the way. i was wondering if I could impact hammer off the silver plate on the strut or would that send all the stuff inside spewing out? some one please help, im really frustrated!!!

when y ou take the stut off the assembly and its the bare strut, there is a silver plate at the top of the black body, i was wondering if it keeps all the fluid in or is that there for ****s and giggles?Comment

well............ yeah..... you guys sure dont seem like you do any of your own work on your cars do you? you have no suggestions? havent you seen what a strut looks like???"?Comment

i have no clue what the hell your saying,...your spring wont slide down far enough to seat on the strut properly. never seen it, and i wouldnt go air hammering anything off of the strut body..thurs alot of pressure in that thing.According to my Anger Management Counselor, after 26 weeks of anger management class, I should be an expert when it comes to Anger Management...tell that to the guy who threw a starburst at my car in rush hour traffic...haha

ok, there is the bare strut. no spring, top, ne thing. from the top of the strut go down that shaft(lol) to the main part of the strut. on top of the main part of the stut is a silver plate/cap thinger. my friend suggested that i impact hammer it off, I dont think I should be because like VTEC said, there is a lot of pressure in there and I dont want all the juice to come out and ruin the strut. any comments welcome!!! sorry for being a ass im just so frustrated!!!Comment

If so i dont know, i have never installed any.According to my Anger Management Counselor, after 26 weeks of anger management class, I should be an expert when it comes to Anger Management...tell that to the guy who threw a starburst at my car in rush hour traffic...haha
