I dont recall any roll pin holding in the shock, and I had them out of the shock housing. Is that a "6" thing? I am not so sure if the shock housings are Bilstein, but the shocks are.
I've got a photo of the shocks at home and I will try and add that later today, well this evening.
How about my rattly covers?
OK I guess I could have been more specific, the roll pin is in Bilstein struts. Bilstein inserts made for Boge style struts have a threaded top the holds them into the strut. The Shock is still and invert shock and the shaft is inside the Bilstein insert. I don't know if the have an internal bump stop or if they can be taken apart. I have no experience with the Bilstein inserts for Bogey style struts. The last shop i worked at had a history of premature failures with Bilstein inserts for non-bilstein strut. So the owners rule was, if it was Bilstein inserts in Bilstein struts was OK otherwise we used Koni or Boge or something else. I was not there when they had their failures so I can't comment on how many or how long they lasted.
The rattly dust covered should be held tight when the strut top is tighten into the camber plate.
