Krzys Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 OEM or aftermarket? Either should fit I'd have thought as it's usually EG aftermarket ones folk get for the M's anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vtec2011 Posted April 12, 2014 Author Share Posted April 12, 2014 It's OEM but shame it isn't aftermarket like Skunk2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayhoath83 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 I seem to remember someone on here said they fit but that it needs spacers for the shocks but not too sure. Tought i would say just incase u do n find out wen the cars in bits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIKH25 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 The way I read it is, ours are thinner than EG ones because when EG shocks are fitted they need spacers. Working on that theory the shock fork may not fit over the lca but I'm sure people have fitted them without problems, hopefully someone who has will pop up and give a definitive answer for you.

Grant Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 I think your right Nick, although I think it's the bushes that are differing sizes isn't it?? Like you said, hopefully someone can chirp in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vtec2011 Posted April 13, 2014 Author Share Posted April 13, 2014 I got another set of rear MB shocks so I will see if they fit the EG LCA's. Thanks for the help everyone 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 The eg rear fork is wider so is the bush. A neat bush cut with a grinder will solve that. Ooh La la 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
