Lower Shock Mount

[Danj56]

Should there be any side to side play in the lower shock mount after bolting everything together? I have side to side play and don't remember ever having this before. I just got the shock back from service.

Some side to side play is normal. As with any roller type bearing.
The o-rings limit the side play.

Thanks it just seems like a lot of play. I guess l need to ride it.

Did you install the cupped(?) Washers outside of the o-ring seals? My lower mount is a tight fit

Yes, I put in both washers and Orings, I don't remember it being loose before I had it serviced. I'm going to take it back off and measure the shock width and the suspension parts for clearance something just doesn't seem right.
