Title: rear shock rubber insert
Post by seve321 on 09/05/18 at 14:19:59

Does any know where to get these rubber inserts with the metal sleeve in it? Or maybe what to key in to come close to it. I have both shocks but no rubber.

Not sure what size they are. But you could measure up and check here. And I'm sure other places have them as well.

I was hoping to find something where the shipping is not more than the actual bushings but I might have to just get those. thanks for the input.

That was just the first one I found. Shop around some.

maybe if somebody has some crap shocks they can pull the rubbers for you.

I had a couple of crap shocks and I knocked the bushings out in case somebody needed some....someday.

Today is the someday!

How many you need......I only have 3?

I need all 4 but I could take one and try to match it at a hardware store.

You aren't going to find these in a hardware store.........you are going to waste time looking. You might be better off just getting a used pair of shocks that are in good shape......lots of them should be available from people going to longer shocks or hardtails.

And.....I have have not tried installing these things - I bet it is pretty hard to get them to go in. You will likely need some good lube and a bench vice. I would think the factory used some form of tapered mandrel and press to get them assembled.
