Alright so I have a set of GC coil over sleeves, KYB GR2 front struts, and KYB Gas a Just rear struts. The GR2 is the easy solution of just trimming the little ring a little bit and it should slide right on, but the rears are my real issue. the sleve fits very loose, I know it should be pretty snug. it does seat in the center, but theres a lot of side to side play, This won't be safe. So I need to build it up to fit the sleve if possable.

So Can I just use some rubber to fill the gap and call it good or what? any Ideas. I'll see if I can get some pictures. to help explain the issue I'm having.

 

have you contacted GC about this? it almost sounds like you got a pair of sleeves for the konis whici IIRC are a bit thicker than the stock or stock replacement shocks.

 

Some people if i recall wrap the strut with duct tape to fill in the gap, then slide the sleeve over it. Should be pretty firm by then.

 

the ground controls I have for my corolla came with rubber o-ring type things that went around the struts to fill in the gap and then you just slide the sleeve over them snug... call GC, their customer service is usually pretty good in my experience.

 

I bought used ones that where on a set of stock electric adjustable sturts. I'll call GC thanks for the replys. Duct tape seems like a winner if all else fails.

I can also get a tube of polyurethane and grease the coil sleves so it doesn't stick to it, and fill the gap, I did this to some motor mounts once and worked wonders.
