Kind of new here and I've been reading alot about mono shock skids. Apparently the track rubs the end of the shock, but there are bearings you can add to the shock to stop this. Does anyone have one of these bearings they can measure (ID, OD, width) or even give me the p/n off of the bearing itself? Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks.

Is that the bearing that you add to the outside of the shock bracket? The track actually rides on the outside?
no that goes inside the shock eye hole .....i belive the old plastic bushings might be worn out on yours causing the shock to move just a bit and rub the track ...i have not herd of a bearing that goes atop the shock mount ....i could be completly wrong but others will jump in and help ....

I have made the kit from a old wheel axle laying around.Cut the ends the 6205 bearing slides on to the same width.Put washers on both ends that are the same size as the inner race of the bearing and a long bolt to hold it all together.Just check they run between the nubs on the track i think you have to use thin washers so not to go to wide.For 25 bucks i dont no if it would be worth it to you.helix said:
