The shock-to-hub bolt hole and bolt on my nearside rear shocker are complete one offs. We had a knocking coming from the back and day before I moved to Manchester my Dad tried taking the shock off to have a look. For whatever reason we ended up having to tap a new hole and matching bolt.
Probably my favourite one-off mod on the car. |
