There's a long on going conversation about that
More people we can get together to complain to Bilstein, more chance they may act on it.

Niall that's a problem with the position of the locating tab I believe rather than a diameter issue!

Dale, what does it measure and are they new?

there shouldn't be any play even with a loose bolt.
