Hey fellow series owners,

I'm having some brain fade, a blonde moment or whatever you call it but I just can't remember and its dark and cold outside so I'll have to wait until the weekend to see for myself unless somone on here has compared these parts and can remember what I can't.

Righto Here is goes....

Has anyone compared the spring bottom plates bottom shock mounts front to rear??? I did and remember the fronts were longer and I Think** the shock mopunt was furthur rearward on the fronts but cannot remember for sure. I guess this is for the shock to miss the swivel end but I need to move the shock mount forward circa an inch or an inch and a half for a project. Can anyone remember if the rears are shorter (pretty sure they are) and if the shock mount is indeed not as far rearward and (pushing it alot now) roughly how much they are shorter/shock mount furthur forward over a standard long mount.

Cheeky Bastid - Go do a search-

Hi Jai

Checked on mine and the rear plate is about 6", front about 8" long. On the front the shock mounting point is to the rear and there is about 2" between the shock mounting bolt center and the rear U-Bolt hole center.

I cant quite see the shock mounting on the rear plate but it looks a bit different from the SWB ones in the parts manual (its dark and everything is still caked in mud from Monday).

SWB and LWB front and back plates all have different part numbers, so this might be useless to you. Hope not.
 
Cheers JCUK,


Don't be going outside and checking its far too cold & dark!

Much appreciated I think I may well get away with my cunning plan!!!
