Hi friends, so Im installing new shocks on my 2011 ranger sport this weekend because im also installing new keys and shackles for a nice 3 inch lift. I noticed that on my old shocks, oem, that they were rivited to the shock itself and not bolts. Does anybody know what size of bolt and nut i should use? I tried googling it but many searches just came up with shock packages and not the bolt sizes.

Also for those interested, Im installing Wulf Suspension torsion keys, shackles, and shocks. If i was actually trying to make my truck last forever i would definitely go for a more expensive lift but this is it for now!

 

Hey, usually when you buy shocks they come with new nuts that thread onto the bolts riveted on your lower control arms. Are you sure your new ones dont come with new hardware?

 

Nope! nothing at all. Im pretty sure the reasonig behind it is that they expect you to put them on a four wheel drive ranger which im pretty sure has bolts you can remove from the shocks. No hardware came with it, im guessing i can just use a normal bolt?
