Default NEED some quick help

anyone online right now that has some experience with Buddy Clubs or even other coilovers...I'm having trouble lining up the front upper A arm, it's hitting the perch...they came with some gold washer (large and convex) are they for the arm to adjust where it seats?

Where is it hitting? Maybe you have them mixed up left to right?

Can you post pics?

What size are the washers? Maybe they are just for the bolt on the lower arm?

i think the washers may have been for if you didn't get the pillow mounts (which mine do) ....as far as left and right I didn't know there was a specified coilover for the drivers and passenger side...they look identical

Mine had a right and left side (Bilstein). It is the brake line mount that is part of the shock body that made it that way. From what I have seen, the Buddy Clubs don't have that mount so they would be the same.

OK, do you still need help? Post a pic of the problem and I am sure you will get help faster.

Good Coilover Install write-up by Gfacter here.

Hope this helps. It helped me with my TEIN Spring install.
