dont grind. I modded newer struts to fit on my 92 hatch once and its just not worth it. Weakening the control arm is like trimming off part of your leg. The spacer has to be cut for it to fit cus the 00s arent as wide. I cant remember but i did put 92 struts on a 00 as well once and I deffently had to cut the conrol arm for it to fit but off the top of my head i cant remember if i had to modify the 92's when using the 00. my advice is if you are going to cut then make sure you cut the spacer evenly on both sides and make sure you dont cut to much and it fits as snug as possible. This whole stupid thing ruined a sunday of mine and i dont want you to go through the same hassle. later

Well, I didn't stress that grinding isn't the best, but I figured he'd know. But thank you for stressing it
