upper shock bolt

[Babaganoosh]

Stupid question but I can't find one... My frame side is a 3/4 but the shock side is 1/2. Anyone know where to find one of these for the rear?

What are we talking about here? Upper shock mount at the frame is 3/4 but your shock has a 1/2 inch hole?

Take the sleeve out?

 

[skunked]

I’ve seen the dorman replacements too.

 

[Babaganoosh]

Yes my frame hole is 3/4 but the shock is 1/2 if I take the sleeve out the bushing wont go over the shock?


I feel like I'm dumb and this shouldn't be that hard why can't I find it lol.

I used to get one every time I warrantied out a shock. Never swapped it if the old one was good. Maybe never did... just looked and don't see any extras, though.

I'll take a look when I get home.

Call tenneco in the morning and tell them what you're looking for. They give you the part number and boom it's in some warehouse at your local dc.

Ben, yanked one off. Only it's 5/8" on one side and 5/8" shoulder with 1/2" thread on the other.

Yours if you want it. Can pull other one too if wanted.

Ok so I finally started working on this again... It still has Moab dust from BB17 on it...

Turns out mine is a 5/8 bolt with a 1/2 shock.
