[QUOTE="Dior55, post: 2147052, member: 13566"] [b]Removal of the Strange Stock Bushing[/b] OK, in March I bought BF's "kit" for the Strange adjustable shock upgrade, and I also bought a set of the Strange shocks from Jeg's. When I saw this post, I hesitated to put the shocks on because of the potential problems. I followed this thread closely. It appears the problem rests in whether or not the Strange shocks purchased have a tapered or straight bushing cup/flange. My question -- is there any way to "safely" remove the bushing from the Strange shock so that if it turns out that my shocks are of the straight, or non-tapered variety, I can send them back to Jeg's? Is the rubber bushing from the shock in two pieces? In other words, can I spray some WD-40 around there and gingerly remove each side of the rubber bushings? Alternatively, is BF producing a variety of its bushing which will work on those of us who happen to get the straight, as opposed to tapered, bushing ends? If I remove the bushings and find out they are straight, can I send my "stock" BF bushings back to BF and get a straight cut variety? This thread seemed to die too young -- as there are some of us wanting to try this set up and we're "betwixt and between". Thanks. [/QUOTE]
