there's no such thing as a strut rod.
you have the shock piston and rod, but it never needs an alignment since it can't move anywhere but up/down in shock body.

im' guessing it's supposed to be a tension rod bushing, but even if it was, i wouldn't buy it from ebay. go hunt down some new tensions rods, period....from pdmracing or something.

energy kit is worth it
it just sucks to have to press or pay to press, those bushings in.

so the energy kit comes with the tension rod bushings? pressing them in/out isnt a problem.

in that pic it looks like you fucked the bushing a little?

lol and ebay is my best friend man il probaly order the energy kit from there after a little shopping.

for many other cars, that part is called the strut rod. doesn't make sense to us, but that's what they call them.
