300 miles on kmac , no noise whatsoever from plates, as quiet as oem.

Procedure involves the following (stock adaptive struts only, stock or lowering springs)


You will need:
From mcmaster-carr or other.

Cage Assembly for 1/2" Shaft Diameter, 15/16" OD, Steel Thrust Needle-Roller Bearing
pt # 5909K31 qty (4)


Metric Nylon Snap-in Thrust Bearing
pt # 7817K66 (2)

Product Detail
Grade 8 Steel Flat Washer, Corrosion-Resistant Coated, 1/2" Screw Size
Pt # 98180A150 (1 qty 25)


On stock strut place one washer, roller bearing and one washer on top, this will go under the plate ( on shock side)

install the nylon snap in ring in the camber plate from the top side.

Insert the strut into plate, install one washer, thrust bearing, washer and nut (factory) to secure the strut to the plate (top side).

problem solved.
