Default gc top hats

hey guys

what exactly are the top hats for? i mean is there a major difference between oem and aftermarket? I am going to be getting some koni yellows w/ gc's, and to get the top hats and everything, its like an extra hundred bucks almost... so my question is, is it really all that worth it?

Exactly. It moves the upper shock mouting point about an inch higher than a stock top hat would. This helps keep the shock from bottoming out.
