supreme_style21 Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 I do know the ribs face down and the little nubs slide in between the metal to lock them in. You put the open end up, so the leaf sits in it, IIRC. Otherwise, I can see the ass-end sitting 2 inches higher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The spring needs that flat surface to ride along when the spring compresses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldsmoBeast Posted February 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 really???? are you sure there still there??? they go in with the lips facing down so they stay in place Yeah Davis is right, and thats what NAPA told me...The lips actually do hold them in place quite well...try them the other way around!!

supreme_style21 Posted February 28, 2005 Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 Well I put them in with the open side facing up, so the spring sat in the groove. I don't recall either side being marked 'up' nor can I see the thing coming out on its own will. The pressure of the spring in the first notch kept it in place just fine. And even with the strut fully extended, the spring still keeps contact with the knuckle. If it did come out, I think you've got bigger things to worry about.

Brian P Posted February 28, 2005 Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 The difference is rather than the spring edge sliding along the puck, the puck is now sliding along the steel knuckle, which might create noise if not now, then down the road.

supreme_style21 Posted February 28, 2005 Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 Makes sense... I guess that'll be someone else's headache now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Givemebreak Posted March 1, 2005 Report Share Posted March 1, 2005 If the puck is installed correctly, it is not possible for the puck to slide on the knuckle. The nubs on the puck lock into place inbetween the knuckle. The spring will then slide smoothly along the flat of the puck that is facing up. Before the puck the spring was sliding on the metal knucke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
