Steering damper shenanigans

[Dan Groves]

Hey All

Why does it have to be so difficult???? Rancho have now sent me 2 different dampers to replace the standard knackered one - ball joint with grease nipple both ends.......both kits they have sent only have fittings for one end and the second 'wrong' mount will deffo not fit through the existing mounts.

Can I just bold the thing up...assume not as with no ball joint surely there will not be sufficient movement??

I have attached photos - am bound to be missing the obvious...but its not THAT obvious!

Cheers All

Monroe makes a direct replacement. Bolts right up.

Yup, I know I can buy another one but having come this far with the bugger I want to fit this one.......have mailed Rancho but really want to get my head around why they can't get it right and IF I can source the fittings elsewhere - being in the UK sucks with stuff like this - thanks!
