What are y’all using for spring perches when using Bilstein front shocks? I read a review on Summit that said the Moogs don’t fit them and here’s a YouTube video of a guy beating the sht out of his shocks to get the perches on. I’m assuming he bought Moogs. Do the oem perches slide right over or do you have to bash them on as well? If the oem’s slide right over, does anyone have a set laying around they’d be willing to let go of? I’d rather not have to disassemble my old ones if I don’t have to. I’d rather just assemble a new setup if possible.
I had my front and rear shocks replaced about 10 years ago with Bilstein B8 Performance Plus Series Shocks. I was there to see the mechanic do the entire installation, and he had absolutely no problem in transferring over the stock components to the new shocks, he never once used the "ford repair tool".
