Ok so i have a question for all you guys here:
i have gc/koni setup (still waiting for shocks to install them :mcry:) and i wanted to try to mate the ksport camber/caster plates to them. so everything was going fine, the camber plates were a perfect fit on the konis and gcs looked as if they would work with the top hats i ordered but then theres this!

there are only 2-3 threads left on the koni!
so i wanted your opinion on the ideas i have:
1. Shave down the top and bottom washer/bearing that goes into the camber plate which would give enough thread to let the top of the koni top nut, sit flush with the top thread on the koni.
2. Only use the bottom washer/bearing and find a metal rod that would fill the gap left by the top washer/bearing and use a washer between the camber plate and the top nut.
I want to know if you guys think either of these would be safe for a dd car?
These are the washer/bearings i am talking about (on the koni threads). Note they don't actually touch like that when the camber plate is installed.
