Front strut spacer question on '89 240 200

When I did my 92 244 a couple years ago I just went ahead and ordered spacers anyway. They are only a couple bucks apiece from fcp.groton.com. I ended up not using them because I found I already had spacers in the tubes when I disassembled them. Some inserts will need them others not. The main thing is the gland nut on top of the tube has to hold the insert in tight with no slop or you will get the dreaded "clunk" mentioned elsewhere on this site.
Hope This helps....

Good Luck
