Installed new suspension

So I have installed new suspension (eibach sport line springs and kyb struts). But when I put the strut assembly back in the car (fronts) I had forgotten to previously mark which way the top 3 studs go into the car.

I was wondering if it matters which way that top hat piece sits in the car, and if it does matter how I would figure out which way it goes.

The top should spin on the shock shaft, really shouldn't matter as far as I know.

Hi I know this might have been asked before but could not find it.

I wonder if the suspension setup on Ralliart is th same as Lancer and swappable? Given they're both CY4A. And if there are any improvements of the RA over the original ES?

Thanks a lot

How much can you pick up ralli art suspension for? And considering its used.

Eibach springs shipped to ur door, can be had for 250, probably less depending where you live.
New struts ran me about 350 I think, decent kyb's.
Im not sure, but the ralliart suspension must be close to that price.

Lots of talk about it. The parts will bolt up, but the difference in weight may cause a ride height issue. In other words, the lighter gts will ride higher than a RA on the same springs.
