I assembled mine as above and thought all okay. However, the spring perch still hits the underside of the camber plate. This is because the spherical bearing allows the plate to pivot over enough that no number of the washers seem to rectify it. To my mind, there should be another big washer at the top that would lock the perch vertically when the final nut is installed. The supplied washer only covers the sperical bearing, allowing the whole deal to pivot randomly.
Am I missing something? I had a quickie install of the assembled strut in the car and trying to turn the strut (as if turning the steering wheel) the plate and top strut perch were making contact. That can’t be right.
