trying to put on new shocks today and i am stuck because the lower shock mounts for the front won't fit over the stud. it appears as thought the lower mount on the stock shock has a bushing that slides over the stud. part of the stud is threaded and part is larger where the bushing sits. well, the lower bushing in the bilsteins has a sleeve in it that will fit over the threaded part of the stud but not the larger diameter part. it appears as though this part of the stud is permanent and not part of the shock. so, what the he!! do i do now. i'm kind of stuck, didn't plan on this taking a few days to do, was hoping for a few hours. i thought getting the stock shock off was supposed to be the hard part. now, i can't put the new back on. help.
