Guys-

I am installing my bilsteins today. I just got the factory strut out and tried to install the bilstein, but it does mate up well at the top. Did I need to purchase anything else to install these???? Like a strut bushing??

HELP!

I have no experience with bilstein, but I have installed several other brands and have never needed any additional parts.

Correct. You should not need additional pieces. Check with the seller and make sure they are for the right vehicle. What exactly is not working on the installation? It fits up top and not bottom or vice versa? The strut doesn't have the reach to go both ways? It should bolt right on. Send more info.
