I plan on ordering the Tein coilovers basics soon
Should i reuse my old top hats, bushings and what ever other parts I will need to reuse or should i order new ones.
I talked to someone at heeltoe and for an extra $150 he would include all the extra stuff and assemble them for me therefore i donot have to compress any springs.
what do u think

Thanks in advance for all your help

If you have alot of miles on the shocks it wouldnt hurt to get new stuff, as there are rubber bushings that wear out

Yes, as Kris said, how many miles on the car? I have done suspensions on 100K+ CL's and everything is still intact so just reuse the old stuff and save yourself some $.

It depends on what your plans are for the car with the new suspension
With all new stuff you are set for track days no problem!

Marcus at HeelToe is really good with Tein stuff, and if you say you want a 1 inch drop he will preset the spring height and the shock settings for you- open the box- install the complete ready to go assembly and enjoy.

If you just get the parts- you remove the strut assembly and use a special spring compressor to take apart and reassemble with the new stuff.
If you are not skilled at this- let a pro do it at a shop for that part-
it can be a life ending injury if the spring gets loose!!!
A trip to the Emergency room at the very least!!!
