    I bought some 6112 and tophats from shop and had them install the springs and tophats..
    I was getting some squeaking on the right side. When I looked it was pretty obvious.

    Now I need to go back and have them fix it. They almost look like different bushings.
    What do you think? Is it bad to drive on?

    Thanks

    Looks like you may be running a spacer on one side also? Threads holding the coilover look longer on one side vs the other. May want to review these with the shop to confirm.

    The local shop apologized and is taking care of it right now. I wish I would have noticed it when I picked them up.
    But I am glad it is getting fixed now. I already drove about 140 miles on it.
