Shock eyelet steel spacers

[RedSRT4Me]

Ok guys I'm looking for some steel spacers that go into the shock bushings that I'm unable to find measurements I need.

This is what I ordered some off summit. The OD is too large for the ID of the bushing. Destroyed a few bushings trying to get them in.



They are too long and too fat.

Which shocks do you currently have?

That’s what she said ^^

what are you trying to do? What’s the application I may have some as a lot of the Ford leveling kits come with billsteins and 3 different sets of bushings and sleeves for each shock

I had a rear shock fail on me. Trying to get my rear shock reinstalled but the supplied spacers are too small from Bilstein. I purchased these larger ones but they are too big. I ordered up 3/4 poly bushings instead of 5/8.

I was gonna do a post that my PCV valve broke my shock but the humor left me after wrestling with this truck.

You can see the weld in the eyelet failed causing the shock to release from the frame. Got a new shock but getting installed without the proper hardware has been an absolute pain in my ass.

My Google is broken. I ran both of those part numbers and didn't bring up any shock hardware.

Wow
Did you install those originally?

They replaced the bilsteins that came with the lift

My question was when you originally installed them the bushings and sleeves were correct? And now the new replacement came with the wrong bushing and sleeves

No. I had somehow lost the originals so I ordered what I thought were replacements and here I am.

Ok so for those that ever run into this problem like I did.

If you use those spacers shown you simply need these Poly bushings for them to fit. I had to cut the spacers down a touch to fit both the frame side and axle side. Maybe spacer is the wrong word. Someone help me out.

And my special Thuren nuts



My problem is I let to shops work on my truck before I decided enough was enough so a lot of what I'm figuring out is their FK'ups without any oem frame of reference.

Still learning as I go. Nice thing I can have that shock rebuilt and have a spare.
