Mines just going through at the moment. Jigars informed me that we'll need the 555-8160 (part #) for the pedders conversion.

i have my own account got some other stuff coming for xmas anyway so putting it all in one one shipping.

also you shouldn't 8160 as nige has made the conversion part and the pedders shaft is 13mm not 12mm iirc anyway steeda don't do a part that fits the pedders at the moment although interestingly 555 8161 does fit BC (who make the pedders kits) but anyway we won't need any of the parts just the mount its self nige's part does the rest.

I had all this earlier (to add to the fun). No consistency of information out there.

I have KW V1's - they're currently fitted into the stock mounts so you''d expect they'd also fit into 8151's which are stock replacements... but 8151's are 10x1.5mm according to Steeda US. Spoke to Guy @ Nemesis on chat and he thinks KW V1's are likely 10x1.0mm thread (as are the V3 and Clubsports), confirmed when I spoke to Christoph @ KW (Germany) on chat. Steeda UK say 8161's are 'tuned' for KW coilovers, but they're 10mm sleeved and not threaded, Steeda US say 8160 for KW V3 and other 10x1.0mm shocks... but also mention KW in the header text on the listing for 8161's, but not in the additional text below relating to which mount is suitable for which type of shock.. confused... you should be!

I just ordered 8160's and if I need to get the inserts machined or new ones made then that's the way it'll have to be... has just gotten too complicated for me to care anymore!

yeah it makes no difference in price whether it's 8160 or not. just whack niges spaces on whichever it is and good to go. the mount is the same on them all, it's just differing spacers inside isn't it?

yep so buy the cheapest :) and use nige's bits and still be 30-40 in pocket vs buying the mounts from the uk he asked me why i didn't just contact robbie at steeda uk and I had to explain its because they were basically charging double the price.

Quite unbelievably... my stuff (shock mounts, adj. sway bar endlinks, plus a host of freebies) was delivered to me in FL this morning. That's less than 24 hours from ordering, and just 18 hours, to get from Valdosta (GA) to Haines City (FL)... well impressed, and happy again now!
