Are the bellows on the front struts supposed to be attached to the upper hat? Or can they float up and down the shaft?

My front bellows are floating and the rears are attached to the upper mount. I need to order the bellows today so I can finish the AGX strut install this weekend.

The front bellows can be purchased at Advance Auto Parts. Many of the stores have them in stock. I had to reuse the rears myself when I put the AGX's on my car to avoid buying new rear plates.

Make sure to cut the bump stops (hard rubber things at the top of the bellows) where the instructions tell you to. Otherwise you'll be cornering on the bump stops all the time.
