I just read a writeup on honda-tech about installing some coilover sleeves *i was bored*. Anyways i noticed one thing we did wrong, and i dont know if it could cause harm- or roughness to the suspension. We did not install the o-rings that came with the kit, none of our friends knew where they went since none of us have used sleeves, the guy said the rings prevent the sleevles from rocking back and foward. Anybody know what size the o-rings are since our friends tossed them out when we were done saying we dont need them

maybe telling us what type of sleeves you installed could help?

I just did a set of these myself. . .
The threaded part of the sleevover. . .ITs alot like rolling on a condom, lol. THe O rings slide down the shaft of the strut or shock, INSIDE of the sleeve. I hope that makes sense. It basically works as a buffer or gasket between the inside of the sleeve and the outside of the shock/strut housing. Make sure you pick the thickest one possible.
