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.

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.
