Re: Spring hanger/shock mount skid plate
Can I re-use my factory u-bolt nuts with proper torque and locktite?
My AMSTAR Skids didn't come with new nuts?

Re: Spring hanger/shock mount skid plate
I guess that is up to you. The brand "A" did have a disclaimer in the instructions to run out to your local dealer and buy new ubolts and nuts. It also did not protect the shock mounting bolt.
A local spring shop can make them. The one here custom makes them instead of stocking piles of different ones. They have a special machine for that.
There are several schools of thought on that. If mine fall off I will let you know. It would be my thought that if bolt stretch was so critical why did GM not put skids on there in the first place??? Knocking the shock off and bottom spring plate is a possible reality without them!
