Title: Any plastic washers on your 957 strut?
Post by: Dan Langille on March 30, 2003, 11:02:41 am

Hi folks...



When I took apart my 957 strut to do some shock maintenance, I found one plastic washer on the steel spacer (part #7 as found at http://cynosure.homedns.org/proflex/resources/97_spc957_strut.pdf).



I'm wondering if this is an optional part.  It appears so, but perhaps I should find a new one just to replace the one I had (which is rather worn out).



cheers

Hmmm, well perhaps I should just try assembling it and see whether or not I still need the spacer.

It definitely needs a spacer.



I used some rubber O-rings.  They fit well, and won't wear much in that location.
