Default Upper mount

I came across the Skunk2 upper mounts. I tried searching and nothing came up that much expect the GC Extended upper mounts but these are not. I have lowering springs with tokico shocks still not installed will these help and can anyone explain how they work and will they be good for my application.

They prob will not help unless you top bushings are worn out.

these look like stock replacements
what do you mean work with the springs?
these are just perches with new bushings
most struts come with the same bushings.

if you get them just know its for show, it'll be no difference in performance.

they will help if you replace all your bushings, not just those. energy suspension has a complete bushing set which includes the perch bushings.

you can easily have a shop press in your suspension bushings and you yourself can replace the perch bushings. the set usually runs about $120, but if you catch in on ebay for a better price, jump on it.

it`s just as good as an oem top mount replacement minus the polyurethane bushing. most upper bushings I coem across are barely worn out anyways. will it make a drastic change in your suspension setup? probably not. will GC upper hats work better for your setup? maybe, but with just some "lowering springs" and tokico shocks, you don`t need them.
