View Full Version : front shock bushings

i put bilsteins on the front and used the top rubber bushings that came with them. the factory bushings were larger, and also had a sleeve that went over the top shock mount, that i didn't put back on. i'm thinking the stock bushings make a difference and would be better than the generic ones that came with the new shocks. any opinions on whether the stock parts should be used, or stick with the bilstein parts? i found some shock posts, but nothing relating to this.
