ok I finally got my koni yellows on but they didn't seem to fit through the stock bushing up by the camber plate so I replaced it with the rubber pieces that came with the shocks ...
I guess it is a little late now but should they have fit with the org bushing and is it a bad thing that I removed the stock and replaced with the rubber that came with the shocks? mike |

Why wouldn't you want to use the brand new rubber bushings/grommets?

the others ones I had to actually cut them apart to get them off the car and then after the fact it seemed like such a PITA that I thought to my self ...hmmmm (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif) ... maybe if it was that hard to take off , maybe it wasn't supposed to come off..

those were probably the 30+ year old originals. Hard as a rock and fused together. As you could see from the new ones they are supposed to be separate.
we are talking about the rubber dougnuts...right? |

I don't think the fronts use the rubber donut pieces up front. At least when I replaced mine with yellows I didn't have them or used the one's that came with them. You got pics of the pieces that you took off the car?
