Top strut mounts, are they interchangeable?

Postby tkboi » Mon Jul 25, 2011 6:16 pm

hey guys i got a set of billies at the moment that i haven't put in yet, and i still have my old f**** up coilovers, which had the adjustable camber top mount, i was wondering is it possible for me to switch them over to the billies so i can get adjustable camber on them?

Cheers, Tommy

The top hat on the coilovers will be vastly different to the top hat on the Billies as the springs are different so Id say no without looking at them.

The camber tops won't be interchangeable. As far as I know the only coilovers for the libs that have interchangeable top hats are the KW V2's. Well actually they use the stock top hats instead of camber tops.

If you want camber plates, try this

Not sure if that price is for a pair or each though.

Cusco also make some, but I was recently quoted $680USD delievered from the states which was a bit expensive for my tastes, I'm sure PHAT could do a better price though.
