[Shotimes] Re: Moog Cargo Coils + ?? HAHA

[Carl Prochilo]

Mark,  One thing I've learned recently in this area is as follows.  My 92
had different strut mounts than your 94.  The 94-94 style are oh so
slightly taller than the OEMs on the 92.  With the Tokico/Eibachs and the
original strut mounts, I used to always catch parking curbs.  After
replacing the strut inserts and using the newer style strut mount, I no
longer have this problem.
