Thread: Suspension - Bilsteins 7100

Yes the step down is what you need..
4 per shock.

I'm not sure we are talking about the same things. Shock mounts or step down bushes? I wouldn't have referred to a bush as a mount.

And if I don't get the Eshock mounts, what mounts should I get?

Ok.. Hole through shock is 12.7mm

D2 bolt is 12mm

Step down bushes go either side of the rose joint and step the diameter down and space the shock correctly.

The mount from Rovertym is an adapter plate to mount on the diff end and then mount the shock.

Yep, thats all pretty simple to me. Thanks mate.

So the "shock mount" that "XHPBT1" is refering to the "step down bush"?

From original they have a rod end type ball fitting instead of rubber bushes, you can get the end cut off and replaced with a new one for bushes.

The step down bush is a reducer for the bolt.

The mount is the mount the shock bolts to on the diff.

I'm guessing your talking about the lower end of the front shock here because the top of the front shocks and both ends of the rear shocks are definitely cross bolts with bushes.

Yep. I understand this. The bolt is smaller than the eye in the end of the shock.

And I'm pretty sure this is the thing I posted a link to a few posts back. I have not been able to open the ROVERTYM website but it looks like the company I provided a link for is making the same things. I'll quote my previous post with the link.

Happy days.

My mistake. I red the welcome page for the site. It says RTE was formerly ROVERTYM
