...for the factory front strut mount and strut bearing.
Pretty simple stuff actually: Wanted to properly retain and center a 2.5" I.D. spring using the factory front upper mount and also use the factory turning bearing. The adapter fully captures the turning bearing in the groove which also helps keep road debris out of the bearing, and retains a 2.5" spring on the other side.
