they wont sell them at autozone bud...you will have to thread pitch match them by taking off one....go up to home depot or lowes and find the correct thread pitch.


just curious as to why you need 2?? did you strip them?? break them??

okay well be careful..in the event that you tighten down to much you can easily snap off the strut bolts if you tighten them down to hard.

drama, are you saying you found a way to round the nuts on the top of the strut tower where the struts bolts into the tower where the strut bar also mounts? What does the extension have to do with it? I'm so confused... haha
