Yeah, we're replacing the McPherson struts, the plates that have the embedded rubber bushing, the springs (I have a good set of rust free / low mileage used WS6 springs), the spring isolators (top and bottom), and the nut (which comes with the struts). What I couldn't find are the mounting plates (the rusty things in my first picture under the plate). That seems to be a Fiero-specific part, and looks like we're going to have to sand it down and paint it. We also have to re-use the washers as it doesn't look like anyone sells new ones anyway.

Just want to make sure I understand that the big ones go on the underside, and the smaller ones go on the top (this is what it looks like to me).


Thanks!

The bidirectional diode. LOL

The equivalent of a bi-directional one-way valve

Hahaha... hey... I switched my EE to Software Engineering when it was taking too long, so don't judge me!
