I have a set of Brislands cylinders wiht a massive rod. Call 1-866-Fuk-Nlow. They are almost brand new. Aprox 500 US dollars for all 4 of them. Cant go wrong for that price.

The problem is not the EAI cylinders. It is the fact they are being used on a car with McPherson struts. The only cylinders that can handle the side loads on a Mac car are the Brislands cylinders. That is why everybody says to juice cars without upper control arms.

THAT HAPPENED TO MY BROTHERS CAR DOING 50 DOWN THE HIGHWAY, EAI REPLACED IT THOUGH. JUST BAG IT OR JUICE IT.

Those aren't x-airs on the rear are they? They look like the regular cylinders. How are the x-airs on the front holding up? The reason I'm redoing mine is bc the mounting tab bent and broke of at the weld, fortunatly I was at home when it happened. Hopefully it doesn't happen with the new x-air bracket design.
