Hi ,
i found an issue that i think it´s not ok. The upper mount of the rear shocks has two rubber bushings. I believe the buschings should be pressed together from the nut on top of the schock. On my car this is not so. The upper rubber piece is loose an can be moved and turned. Here is a pic and a video that shows what i mean. Any thoughts how this must be? ![]() https://youtu.be/4fTn4ur3C0w Regards Michael |

James that is the nut that supports the rubber I am going with rubber. Your bumpstop idea means that the shaft will extend closer to the hood by the washer width. Several ways the solve the problem.
Cheap way is new rubber or a washer to take up the space. Expensive way, replace the assembly with a monoball upper mount. Can chuck the rubber support piece in a Metal Lathe and take off oh so much. Let me know if you need rubber business, I have a drawer full of them, as I run monoball shock mounts. |
