Could be mate, been great before but on a drive out this morning on a bumpy/pot holey road started knocking got home whipped it off and it wasnt good only thing i can do is ring fk tomorrow and ask if they have the correct top mounts to fit the shocks ?

Phoned fk today he said with the referance number he couldnt do much i was at work so didnt have it on me but he was adamant that the shocks fit the standered top mounts, but the top mounts are 9.5mm and the shocks are 13mm so how he thinks they fit is beyond me ill phone again tomorrow with referance number and take some pics to send them, bit of a joke really ha

Sorted it now had to file down the top mount for the top ring to sit inside as they are bigger also been a pain and u can see clearly the size difference in the shocks so how they say they fit ??
