So, I decided to assemble my shocks today in preparation of receiving my front franky and other parts for my lift.

And I came upon a small setback...

If I remember right, I used the smaller ones then added a washer or too and it was snug...

I may have done it wrong but it worked for me/ :lol:

Take all of the sizes, slide under the Libby, and see which one fits in between the shock mount. Then install it in your bushing.

I got a set of the 7088's in the garage, I just checked.... the 1 5/8" are in the piston end, the 1 3/8" ones are in the tube end. Got them from someone else so I figure they are in right.

uhm not sure. I got them from another member, I've never mounted them, but I would imagine so.

I ended up using the 7088s on mine. The two bushings on the right in that photo are the ones you want. The longer one goes on bottom...the shorter one is used in the top. The rod end goes up of course when installing the shocks. On the bottom I had to spread the shock mount open wider with a pry bar, then the bottom bushings slid right in and I tightened everything up. No knocking and banging and no washers used. So far I couldn't be happier. :BANANA: Got two of these for the price of one Bilstein too.
