Anybody fitted Pro Comp shocks ? was created by Grego

Got a set of Pro comp ES1000 shocks to fit, but I cant figure out the rear shock bushes.

Wondering how others have fitted them?

Trim the bushes down at the top. I use an orbital sander.

Problem I have is I only have 1bush per shock with an id of 12mm (33mm long), the next smallest is 13mm id, not much good with a 12mm bolt

Hi Dave, they look like the perfect answer to an annoying problem

Its not too hard for me though as I can knock up a couple of bushes on the lathe easily enough if I need to, but I would rather have had 2 bushes to fit out the box

Particularly like your split castor correction bushes btw, neat idea
