Today I recieved my new adapters that can be seen below. I pretty much got the install down except for the fact how the adapters mount into the sleeve.....

Here is the picture of the new adapters:



My question is, how do the adapters go into the sleeves. Below are the two options to how the adapter can mount into the sleeve......

Option #1:



Option #2: **It's kind of difficult to see the indention that is pointed out in the first pic. But, it's on the bottom or closer to the sleeve in the pic below.



Here are the instructions for the installtion:



I believe the adapter will go in like the first picture and the adapter will rest on the Bilstein lip near the bottom of the shock.

Thanks for any input on this. If you need more pics or more info let me know.......

 

I think I know what your talking about. If your Bilsteins are anything like the Koni Yellows there is that ring on the shock body. I believe you want it the way it is in the 1st pic. That way the indentation will allow the ring to sit right in there.

 

Yeah, you can see it in the pic below.......

 

Yeah...but I didn't think the ring was that far down. Its hard to tell where the top of the shock body is behind the sleeve.

You've got that adjuster upside down.

 

The sleeve is sitting at the top because that ring is to big for the shock.....



Here is a pic of the sleeve sitting on top....



I'm off to bed. Got to install these babies in the morning
