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)

either add a shim at the base or compare some collars to see if your using the correct one.
The correct ones for your strut should be round and have two small holes 180deg from each other in the top. B |
