Yeah, The upper seat is supposed to rotate with the strut when you turn the wheel and keep the spring seated. I have no idea why theres no bearing in the other.

odd. And there's no way that center piece can rotate in the new upper mount? Because it needs to.........amazing how simple stuff always turns into rocket surgery lol
