Serendipity! It just so happened that I had planned to be in the garage today,
replacing a front shock on my â??72 GT. I think the issue I had noticed was
actually caused by a missing bolt on the front anti-roll bar; but Iâ??m going
ahead with the shock replacement since itâ??s here and paid for.
I noticed, during disassembly, that the manual calls for a spring washer under
the castellated nut on the pin that attaches the shock A-arm to the kingpin.
(If I have the terminology correct). My car was missing that spring washer.
Is that a reason for concern? Could it be effectively replaced with a flat
washer? I couldnâ??t identify an item number for it in the Moss catalogue . .
.
Thanks to everyone who contributed to the thread, especially Paul Hunt. And
thanks in advance for your responses!
Phil
