Default Rear Hal install ?

Just opened up my rear Hals. The shock comes with 2 bushing looking things and the upper mounting hardware. It dosent appear to have come with any lower mounting hardware. Did you guys use both sleeves and go to the hardware store for a nut and bolt? The price we pay for these things, you would expect them to be complete.

I had to go buy 2 Grade 8 bolts for them <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" />
I used 2 bushings on each shock, but either way will work. In retrospect I'd probably just use 1 and buy a shorter bolt. good luck with the install

I'd send the HALS back. IMO they aren't worth the money. If you bought them hoping to improve your 60 ft. performance, you most likely will be disappointed. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="gr_sad.gif" />
