Shocks. Is this Correct

Which washers are you short? The ones for the bottom of rear shock? I think the original ones will be ok/ are the same. Wondering if there has been a mix up as the td5 rears had cups prebuilt into the axle mount , one on each side.

And ooh snap! Your post prompted me to order some new as I was not quite sure my rear lowers were correct.



An Oe bush and new replacement on shock washers.



I was expecting to receive the largest of the bushes that you have in you’re pic. They are the ones I have on the fronts. How can they have three types of bush for one fitment?

Rear washers should be ( pre td5 ) 90

Well got new bushes today, but still now further forward they are completely different from the other two, they just sent 4 bushes with no washers as the first two also had completely different washers, one of them did not even slide onto shock
Suppose I could use these 4 they have just sent but will need to get a matching set of washers too..

The first photo looks like the same bushes I fitted to my rear shocks, lower mounts. The upper poly bushes are a tapered bush and sleeve.

The last photo looks like a full set of washers for the lower mounts. If you have two washers that don’t slide onto the shock, then that is correct. These are the last washer to go on, and stop you over tightening the bushes as it stops when it hits the bottom of the threads, like the radius and trailing arms.

Have a look at this photo, but substitute the two black bushes for two of the bushes in your first photo. The “gap” in the middle of the middle 2 washers is where your axle mount goes.

Will have to mismatch the washers I have, to suit, and use these new bushes so they are both the same on each side.

I wouldn’t be mixing the washers up. Each one has a specific job to do.
