Bilstein eyelet too small, anyone else run into this problem? suggestions? (1 Viewer)

Anyone have a suggestion/run into similar situation? I'm replacing my shocks for the first time on our cruiser. The eyelet in the bushing is too small--when I called Summit Racing they were also befuddled (could just be the single tech support person) also because their system also shows that these shocks should fit. Help! all suggestions welcomed!

Hope that your travels take you to the Great Land one day,

Ron

Press in a different bushing. Pretty common “issue” for Bilstein shocks, from my experience.

my bilstein’s fit perfect. Something is wrong.

Looks like it's for the front maybe? I thought the rear shocks had bigger diameter holes.

Yeah, those bilsteins are for the front and it looks like you're trying to replace the rears.
