Alrighty, I need to know for everyone who has swapped out there stock struts/springs on their 92-95 civics, what dust covers did you use for your struts?
I'm talking about the thing that covers the strut rod to prevent dirt and what not from getting on the rod then into the strut.
I have tokico hps with lowering springs.
Can you use your factory dust covers or am I suppose to order some from tokico like those foamy ones that I see on aftermarket struts?
I don't have the factory metal dust covers that came with factory struts because when I first dropped my car I used coilovers but the car would not drop because it was sitting on top of the metal dust covers so I had to take them off.
I need to know ASAP

 

well u don't really need dust covers that badly...just use the factory ones if they fit..if not...i don't think it would be that big of a problem without them on

 

Well, I know it voids the warranty not to use them with my tokico struts. I just dont think the factory ones will work when you lower your car.

 

Usaully if you are lowering it you can use the stock ones but you have to cut it in half so they don't bottem out ..

 

Cut the metal dust covers in half?
Are you confusing these with the bumpstops?
