I have read around in the past, that you have to cut somthing when installing the springs...I dont remember exactly what it said and cant find it anymore...Can somebody help me and explain what it is, and do I have to cut anything or can I just put the springs in...Thanks in advance....

 

i belive you are refering to the bump stops. i donot have the df210's so i will stop here ( dont wont to give bad advice) but i am sure some one else will jump in and let you know.

 

Bump stops, its the hard foam type cone that sits on the piston shaft of the strut/shock.

 

I followed these instructions when I did mine:

Just cut them in half.

 

I have Df's and DID NOT cut the bumper stop... I have not felt any bottoming out... But then again i dont rally my car and hit dips hard... i know a lot of people dont cut them...

 

I've installed 2 sets of DF's and didn't cut the bump stops...

I didn't cut my bump stops when I installed my Hotchkis springs, either. Then again, they provided shorter urethane units.

 

i chopped mine right in half when i put my DFs on. I dont rally my car and i go slow over bumps whenever possible. Didnt want to chance anything. Last thing i want to do is rip apart the cowl again to pull those struts off.

 

i didn't pull my cowl out to do my springs
