da hell, seriously? The couldn't sell you the lower eye bushing used with ITR LCA's? I thought that was the whole point of making that bottom piece threaded like that.

What's the difference? He has to spend money either way - buy lower mounting fittings, or buy cast beam-style rear lower control arms.

The reason the bottom piece is threaded is because the ride height adjustment is separate from the spring preload adjustment since the damper has a fixed stroke length.
