I just replaced front and rear shocks,and thought i would replace the silicone filled bushes in the tension rods.

 

The 12mm Bolt holding the rubber strip to the bottom wishbone sheared off:headvswal on both sides :headvswal:headvswal.

 

My question is the rubber strip is it to aid airflow to the brakes? and what effect would it have if i removed them.

 

Otherwise it means drilling out the part thats left sheared in the wishbone:rolleyes:

Do not worry too much, vary rare to get the 12mm out with out them shearing, not all zeds have those rubber air deflectors so are just a little add on rather than a must have.

 

Also the clamps holding the main body are very strong and more than capable of holding the rubber in place anyhow.

Thanks Jeff, i thought that if i leave the rubber on and do nothing with the sheared bolt i might experience some noise due to it flapping about!
