I just bought the Rusty's kit and was wondering what stock components may get re-used. Reason I ask is that I went to a local 4WD shop to get them installed, they told me they wouldn't work. Bear with me here as I'm new to all this and don't know the correct terminology. The "strut collars" that fit inside the front coils have alot of play side to side. The guy from the shop told me the collars should fit without play. Makes sense to me. He then wondered if maybe they use some piece from the stock unit that takes up the play between the spring and the collar. Are the Rusty's coils the same I.D. as the stock Springs? If so, might they use the stock (why would they give me new ones) collars? I'm scheduled to have my kit installed at another shop tomorrow a.m., and don't want to get that "call" half way thru the install telling me the kit won't fit. Any help you can give me (ASAP) would be appreciated. Thanks!
