Part list for Eibach/Koni combo install?

About to order the Eibach/Koni combo and want to build them to be ready to bolt in so that the stock struts remain fully assembled. Based on the tutorials I’ve read and watched, I believe I need the following parts.

Can anyone please confirm or tell me where I’ve gone wrong? Thanks!

I called Koni for clarification and this is what you need to make a complete front assembly.

3/4/5 don't need to be ordered, they're the bolts/nuts that hold the strut to the knuckle and need to come off to get the old assembly out. Not sure why it shows two top nuts, there's definitely only one. You need the rest though.

You'll also need the parts for the rear too
*edit* - you snuck in the post for the rear while I was typing.


I'd check to see if your springs come with bump stops before ordering new ones, they're like $20 each IIRC.

12 is the nuts which attach the top of the strut mount to the strut tower, I'm not sure why they don't show the analogous one in the rear parts breakout. 3/4 are strut to knuckle and as you mentioned not needed, so as the same they show 12 for strut to strut tower. 2 is the top nut on the front and 9 is the top nut in the rear. 2/3 in the rear is for connecting the strut to the rear lca.

Thanks wparsons and Tristor for the feedback. Yup, the diagrams aren’t the best but all I could find online. The second nut on the front strut is actually just a dust cap apparently.

13 is the dust cap, 2 and 12 are definitely nuts.
