Upper Strut Bushings

[bigBlue]

I am looking for the upper strut bushings to go with the RSX-17505's I just purchased. Rancho does not sell them separately. Anyone one got any ideas?

There are no "upper strut bushings" on a KJ,just a upper strut plate and that gets reused since there is no bushing.You will also reuse the OEM upper/lower isolators also.

so the 17505's screw rigth into the upper strut plate? is that correct? No bushing involved at all?

yes the 17505s use the OEM strut plate. Ranchos should have come with a new nut on the stud just compress new coils and tighten the stock strut plate onto Ranchos and voila. and as for bushings.. mine didn't come with such thing

Yes,and kjweston is correct the 17505's will not come with any bushings at all,just the strut(actually a shock,another story) and a new top nut and that is all(okay it comes with a sticker also).

Don't they go in the engine compartment, under the nut & washer at the top of the strut tower?
