I think my shocks are moving back and forth near the bottom of the strut (arrow 2) when I grab the tire/wheel at the 12 and 6 position.
Is this anything to worry about? The nut (arrow 1) is tight and I cannot feel movement any other place on the suspension. No movement when I grab the tire/wheel at 3 and 9 o'clock Attached image(s) |

What shocks..?? What struts ??
It sounds like the shocks need a small collar on them under the threaded collar. Koni's in Carrera struts need this collar... NO matter how tight you tighten the top.. the strut will still be loose in the strut. B |
