Bellows issue
Both sides of my front struts has the bellows not attached to the bump stop. When I try to attach it, it comes lose from the bottom. Do you guys have this issue? I sprayed the seal with silicone but with time debris will cause damage without the bellows sitting correctly unless it's designed like this which I doubt?

I had the same issue. Never worried about it. Tried zip ties on the strut body, no help. It's just a design issue.

I put in a set of Bistiens about a year ago, they do the same thing.
