The picture I found on a members site shows the correct bushing to be very long. I am guessing I would need a new lower correct looking washer as well,and just one whole long bushing is used instead of 2 halfs is this the case? 6250996-md923.jpg (78 downloads)

You could try using the small washer on the bottom, I don't really see a lot of problems with that idea... Paint the shocks semi black and be done ! *CHECK OUT MY NEW WEB SITE !*

You remove the inner sleeve, slide the bushing into the chassis, re-install the sleeve then put the shock in with one each washer on top and bottom. Tighten the nut down until it squashes the bushing,, the sleeve stops it from being over tightened
