Default Re: Pics of KD tube shock installation

Thanks Alex for not only the pictures but the descriptions to go along with it. Wish I had this to refer to when I installed mine several years ago.

In your post #3, you mentioned using the longer shoulder bolts rather than the bolts that Ken supplied. That is exactly what I did, only I just ordered new ones from one of the vendors, probably Snyder's. I have recommended to others that they order the bolts (and nuts) before they even attempt installation, as it really does make things go easier, and it looks like it belongs. (I bought 4 sets; A2248 + A2250) so that all of the bolts were the same.)

Oh, and I painted my shocks black before installing them, just so that the bright blue color didn't stand out like a sore thumb.
