OK, I received my new shocks, THANK YOU JULIE from DMCMW!

But, they came with the adjustable collars, which is what I expected, but not the "cradles" ? that the springs would rest on? Not sure if I was supposed to order those or not. I am reusing an OEM set of springs (Thanks Nick!) to fix the ride height, but where do I get the "cradles"? Do I cut those off the old OEM shocks I have now? I tried to check the parts listing on Delorean.com but the site seems to be broken at this moment (won't load the parts page).

Thoughts? These are Ed's shocks.

TIA,

Doogie

You re-use the ones that are on the car. They show on the parts list as 101205 but they are not available. You just put them on the new shocks. Nice idea to clean and paint them though. You do not need to cut them off, they will almost fall off once you remove the shock from the car.

Site seems to be working at my house. . .

Thanks Dave! I thought that might be the case but wanted to double check. The site is working for me now. Thanks again!
