Haynes Roadster front upper shock bracket
Thatcher - 3/4/17 at 08:00 PM

Hi all,

Just a little quiery once I have tacked my upper front shock absorber brackets on, I have found that the bolt length needed to attatch the shock is a real faff to get in and through bracket and shock.

Am I missing a trick here?

Cheers.

Yeah it is a bit of a faff

Yeah I know it's a faff but it there a IVA friendly solution to put in a right length bolt. What about a length of studding and nylocs at each end?

Mine has M12 x 70mm 8.8 bolts and nylocs from Toolstation (very reasonable BTW) which fit and have just passed an IVA.
