I need a shock mount stud......

You remember those things that used to be free with every shock set? Apparently, those are overhead because you can't find them now.

I had one from a previous shock set but I can't find the other one.

It's a 1/2-20 stud with a 5/8" shoulder for a shock with the eye. I bought the shocks we were discussing on a previous thread.

I talked with both parts stores in the area and they looked in all their books. No luck. The shocks I ended up with were the Monroe 5752. That's the shortest shock I found in a production shock.

Parts guys to the rescue.

 

I last got some at the local tire/brake/shock store. They would even let me pay for them.

 

The last set I got came out of a set of shocks I purchased. They were for the rear of a chevy half ton truck - think 80s model. My buddies at the parts store pulled'em out for me and defected the boxes and sent'em back.

 

check out the "help" section at autozone. it's the only place I can find them on a regular basis.

 

I know socal speedshop has them, I just bought some. They were like $20 though! for polished stainless

 

ck out a used harley shop near you made all diff sizes for sporties and big twins

 

Monroe part #'s for 1/2 thread CP1, CP2,CP3, CP4.
They measure the shaft length from 1/2 way in the ring mount to the backside of the stud mount.
CP1 1-1/16
CP2 1-3/16
CP3 1-5/16
CP4 1-1/2

Hope this helps, if any questions the specs are in the Monroe on-line catalog under misc info .

 

look for shoulder bolts at the hardware store..... I don`t know if they make them in fine thread though.

 

Go to:
http://www.speedwaymotors.com/Rear-Shock-Mount-Studs,5485.html

They are $2.99 each there.

 

Also used to come with 63 Chevy half ton shocks.

 

Went through same thing myself a few weeks ago. If you cant give the clowns behind the counter a year make and model your out of luck. I remembered I had a mid 80s Chev truck that the shocks came with those studs as mentioned above.

 

Thanks guys. I should have tried to get them BEFORE I built my brackets. I'll check out all of the leads I have here.

 

The mount at the Speedway link above is available at OReilly's in their HELP display.

 

Not at our O'reillys. It was a 1/2" bolt with some lame washers.

I can have stuff here the next day with Speedway. It's amazing how fast it gets here.

 

Same thing with those dimpled washers. Where can they be found?

 

They came with the shocks I bought for my '64 Chevy truck. I think they were Monroe's from O'reilly.

I probably have 6 or 7 pairs in my toolbox.
