fil it over and hammer the lower spring pocket out. BUT u have to use a cut off wheel and cut off that gold retainer off, unless you can carefully cut off the lower spring pocket.

so on the shock, take off the stock lower perch by hammering it out or cut it off carefully?... and the UAS lower bracket will just fall in place? and the gold retainer, i can just grind it til it's flush...
and the upper bracket, i understand that the strut rod itself goes throught the hole on the top bracket of the bag but why is it so loose? won't the bag just side to side? or am i missing something?
any pics?
blackonblack, thanks for the link but it doesnt quite explain much..

yea thanks... i seen ur post, helped out alot...
im actually done with the setup... its tight and all but doesnt ride as smooth as my JP coilovers...i mean its koo for what it is but this is my daily driver and i felt like a ruined the value of this car, so i sold the whole UAS kit to one of my homies...he's gonna run these on his JIC coils.. took me 2 months of research and gathering parts and got it done last week... and i didnt want to but the bags over the coils since i like them so much and didnt wanna ruin them... so hopefully imma get a older UFC-20 and hack that one up and use this as an daily driver...
i took lots of pics and was gonna start a build tread but since im not gonna run it no more, im too lazy...
i wanted to thank everyone that replyed to all my PM's about how to install this and that, universal air, eight08customs, Dennis (VIP-UFC my bad homie, i didnt come thru) and i forgot who else, i know theres more..
here yall go, laid on the ground..
