yeah im going to take off the fronts now and then if i have the energy take them apart to show what i have. Hopefully Sakebomb will get back to me faster on here than they have been responding in email.

Am Sure they Will

Try Facebook got real quick response from them there. Here, not so much.
You shouldnt have to ask the S2k community for support on a vendor specific product like this. I hope Sakebomb steps up their game.

yep, got a reply to my YT video and then a PM here. there was a slight difference in spacers so i had to take the fronts off and dismantle them. now i just need them to settle so I can work on getting the height right.
Thanks everyone who replied and helped. I'll try to post pics tomm. if i don't roast.

Just saw your update.
You have it assembled in the correct pattern but you need to drop your spring first. You can't be pushing the spring down when you're trying to install the top hat. Preload gets set after you fully install the tophat.
There should be two different sets of spacers. I don't remember whether the long one goes in the front or the rear, but if you assemble them side to side you'll see one of them will work and one of them won't. If you assemble it correctly there should be the same amount of threads sticking out above the tophat on both front and rear sets. The bearing sleeve goes up top as you correctly demonstrated in your video.
There's not much room between the adjuster knob and where the nut will end up seating. Maybe 1 or 2 threads IIRC. If you need a pic I can grab one off my car.
