    Bought Protech shocks

    I bought the Protech shocks.

    Do the bottoms need bushings? Or just those spacers zip tied on??

    it seems that this shock doesn't have the double knob feature, right?

    Correct. I bought the single knob, the double was much more in price.

    Back to question, do I need bushings on bottom?

    I've never seen those shocks but all others I've seen:

    The shocks should have a rubber bushing in them. Then you use spacers if required to hold the shock in place. I don't think you need spacers on rear shocks, just the front.

    According to this thread

    http://dmctalk.org/showthread.php?11...hlight=protech

    Martin in the UK fitted a similar set. Perhaps PM him?

    No-one is to stone anyone, even, and I want to make this absolutely clear, even if they do say "carburetor"

    What does the mounting piece look like?

    If this is what your center piece looks like you probably don't need anything but the spacers.
