I have KYB Struts and my 2010 for expedition 2wd and I did not know that the factory struts/shocks lower spring perches came off. I had the dealership 4.5 years ago replace them and I was never told. So fast forward I go and buy Bilstein struts and pull everything apart and boom I can't install them.
I was either thinking about returning them and buy Ford factory struts that come with the lower sping perches or I found local auto wrecking yard has 2007 2wd and they are asking $300 for all 4 complete factory struts.
I was wondering if that was a good deal? I spend $449.18 shipping and taxes on rockauto for the bilsteins already and if I should spend another $300 on used struts just to part them or should I buy the Ford factory struts that come with the lower spring perches?
I attached somepictures I found of what the lower spring perche looks like and on factory strut and what it looks like on the bilstein struts.
So mad that the dealership didn't tell me to keep the factory struts lower spring perches/seat.
