    Monroe.

    And I say that because I have the KYB mounts. I have experienced and read many bad things with the KYB mounts.

    Might as well get eccentric camber bolts, unless you want to slot the struts.

    I'm assuming they are so you can do a proper alignment?

    If you have lots of miles, might be good to change the lower spring seats.

    Thanks to everyone for the info. Looks like I'll be having some fun soon. I just ordered the top plates and pogo washers from ZZP and the AGX struts and boots from Tirerack.

    Sit them side by side. My zzp ones had a better cup around the outside. The centers were slightly different too. It "hugged" the mount much better I ran a week using the ones from a spare cradle.

    These are the one's I picked up. ZZPerformance - Anti Pogo Washers #ZZ-APW

    Was i reading the description wrong? It said they replaced the top plate spacers.

    You did good.
    I was just saying they are pretty similar. I dunno what zzp uses but the cradle washers I took off my car vs the washers from zzp, I prefer the zzp ones
