Hi guys,

Can anyone help me, fitting some new rear shocks soon. Does anyone know how tight you are supposed to do the nut on the top of the shock (inside the boot) to squash down the rubber?

Thanks

Paul

Well all fitted now actually the query was because. When moving along I have a rattle, if you push down rear when the boots open you can here a nock as the shock comes back up sounds like its coming from the tops of the shock. Any ideas what it could be????

Cus I can't find it
