[martyboy]

Hi looking for a little help ,my bus has horseshoe plates on the rear my question is am i using the correct shocks ,i have kyb which today i measured when the bus was in normal park it was around 390 mm between the bolts .
i then removed the bottom bolt used my bottle jack until the shock dead ended this was around 300-310 .
