I was looking at the UPR front coilover setup for my car. However i am a bit confused on the install, i have installed coilovers on a buddies volkswagen, and looks alot different then my cobra.

Anyway what i am confused about is how they install and do you need a special strut to put the coilover sleeve over the strut. Right now i have tokiko front struts. Would the UPR coilover sleeve just fit right on top of these tokiko struts?

If anyone has these, i would greatly appreciate some advice and possibly some pictures of the setup.

Thanks!

Some struts have to be trimed at the top for it to slide over it. Like my lakewood 09/10s had to be put was minimal and worked fine.

I have them with tokico struts. I had to tap the dust cap off the strut with a hammer and screwdriver so the sleeve would slide on. Once the sleeve is on you can tap the cap back on. Other than that, they fit just fine.
