For anybody who has aftermarket Shocks/coilovers, I need your help plz..
Hey guys, today I finally started installing my rear suspension on my 1994 honda civic coupe.
The shocks that I'm installing are Tokico Blues and the coilovers are Toms Motorsports.
My problem is that when everything was installed, the actual strut shaft was far out from the Strut mount in the rear.
it seems that the car was just sitting on the shocks and when I took it for a test drive, it seemed like I had no shocks cause the ride was very bouncy and over every bump I went over, there was squeeking noise coming from the rear.
If this dosen't make sence, I'll repeat it.
Also, does anybody have any pictures or can get pics of the rear strut mounts with coilovers and aftermarket shocks installed.
thanks
bartek

When you say the strut shaft was out from the strut mount do you mean that it looked bent or that it was at a weird angle. Coilovers, by the way, tend to bounce...If you can find a rear undercarriage pic it would help.
