ADS Shock body

has any one had any issues with fitment of the ADS coilover into lower control arm shock body mount. The inside diameter of the mount is 39.5mm and outside diameter of the shock body is 41.5mm any ideas on how to get it to fit?

 

If it is the rear, grind a bit or maybe come pliers are open it up !!

 

It is on the front, when trying to get the coilover to sit into the lower control arm

 

Are the misalignment spacers installed properly?

 

I believe so, it was an issue for both sides that the shock was slightly bigger than the opening on the lower control arm

 

Put a bolt through the LCA mounts, threading two nuts between the mount flanges. You can then use it as a 'spreader'. Had to do this on @Don5352 truck. We figured it was from over torquing the previous install

 

Perfect I was trying to think of a way that would work as a "spreader"

 

They were surprisingly easy to bend. Start small...
