Re: Need help with coilover mounts

So here is what I see from the pictures. The mounts are all wrong. The the type of mounts look like they are for shocks with rod ends and not rubber bushings. The spacers are not correct. Pull it all apart and look at what the rubber bushings look like and how they are set up in the end of the shock. See if the shocks will take a spherical bushing. If they will take a set i would put them in, Then put them back on with no spacers and see if you can get them to stand up straight up and down. If you can then cut new bushings to get them centered. The way the mounts are in the truck you really need the spherical bushings. If it was my truck I would be butting new shock mounts in at the top.
