How to install Vorshlag rear shock mounts - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

This video shows how to properly configure MCS, or similar style coilover, suspension when using the Vorshlag rear shock mounts.

Originally I had used the OEM spring hats instead of the MCS supplied spring hats (which worked ok). This process shows how to assemble the rear shock when using all of the correct parts (non-OEM).

I don't think it really matters. My RCE T2's were shipped with them on top, so that is how I put together the MCS originally. Vorshlag shows the helper spring on the bottom in their updated photos, so I just switched to that.
