I know the stock top-hats are needed but can anyone confirm if any of the other components are needed?

When I installed my suspension, I bought new top hat bearings, and new bolts (#9 and #13 in the pic, respectively), but ended up not needing them. I also bought the bolts for the rear shock and did end up using them. The ones I pulled out were rusted and the threads were rough. I would also recommend tie rod ends, or at least the rubber boots for them (neither are shown in this illustration); I completely destroyed the boot on one of them and the bearing inside was shot as well.

So for the top hat bearings, when you say you didn't need them, do you mean the Racelands don't utilize them, or the ones you already had on the car were fine?

The ones I had were in tip top shape still so I reused them.

2nd batch comming sooooon please! lol

[tindrumstoo]

i asked raceland cs to do a ephatch group buy but they declined saying their prices were already super cheap and i guess i cant argue with that, too bad though... looking forward to the 2nd batch and hope the prices stay low!

[kevinlopezzz]

glad i got mine right before they sold out!

[godzilapimpinn]

i put mine on today.. but now i get these clunking sounds? any ideas?

[Alex857]

ive had mine on for about a month or so already, i love them. I would not reccomend autoxing on them. mine were quiet as a mouse untill i did. i blew my front 2 struts lol im only lowered 1.5 from .75 in the back because of big wheels. other than the day to day noise after autox, i love them, feel very very close to stock

[moi-ep3]
