rear shock brackets that rattle was created by reaper
I noticed that after fitting some rear shock re-positionrs that due to having to leave some slack on the mounting bolt that they rattle like mad
Even with the mounts drilled and the through bolts were used they still needed some play to let them rotate so the rattle was still there .
Well i mentioned this the james (j999pre) and he had the same problem this was what i came up with thanks to james for the old shock that i stole the eyes from
Now the mounting bolt can be tightened right up just as you would a shock ....no more rattle that in turns means no dead spot on your shocks
