Default FS: Powered By Max Adjustable Top Hats (Fix your UAS bag rubbing!)
I had these adjustable top hats made by PBM to fix UAS bag rubbing when the car is very low but since I parted out my car I don't need them anymore. They change the position of the strut to move the bag away from the spindle to avoid the rubbing. They are brand new never mounted.

Didn't try it myself but I've seen cars in Japan use something similar to fix the problem. That's where my idea came from.

Doesn't affect the camber since the 2GS uses a different kind of suspension setup. Only helps with bag rubbing.

Top plate adjustments only adjust camber on a Strut car because the spindle is mounted to the strut, on a control arm car like GS camber is modified by eccentrics or arm length.

These just allow to pull the top shock mount inboard to get it further back from the spindle and tire.

If the stock strut locking nut at the top fits the coilovers, it will fit these strut mounts.
