right i fitted a set of these last year (cheers monkfish) but noticed a clunk from the rear last few months(no its not the spare wheel)
im sure there is some bushes missing off the top of the shock as they seem loose in the top shock mount in the boot. thinkin the cartoon characters in the bodyshop must of had them out for some reason and lost some bits. anyone got pictures of what should be there as i cant rememeber

cheers paul

Hi Paul I've got V3 on mine (or soon not to be). trevor is picking it up this week. Will try to get a pic, are you talking about the top of the damper inside the boot?
As a matter of interest how are you finding them? I ended up experimenting with spring rates until I found something that works on the road (changing from 19 to 18" rims made a big difference as well).

yes a pic of what should be fitted at the top of the shock on the boot side and on the inner arch side if ya dont mind chum. i got a softer set of springs supplied with the kit but started off with the kw's and have just stuck with them. dont really find them too hard at all, my gf sri turbo on standard shocks and 40mm springs is like riding on bricks so the ro feels like erm well comfy
