Black Rubber Do-hickey Washer Thingy
Ok, I replaced my shocks last weekend and got to wondering what is the purpose of the black rubber dohickey washer separating the two top shock bolts?
I never noticed before (after 23 years of ownership) but it sits about 1/8 inch proud of the fender so it seems rather useless as a bushing. Is it a splash guard to keep you from spilling your beer on the shock absorber while you're futilely trying to find the latest vacuum hose leak?
