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)

2nd the motion: top nuts need a coller (or you used the wrong top nut). When I installed mine, I had two sets of top nuts (wrong and correct)... guess which ones I used first (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
...scratches the hell out of the top of the shock, too (but who's going to see it now, eh? |
