Washers used for Alive Comfort Shocks
I’m just fitting Alive Comfort Bilstein dampers on my 110 (Puma) and looking for a bit of guidance from anyone that’s fitted some. On the rears, what washers/spacers are people using on the original LR mounts?

The top bushings on the shocks are already mounted on a metal tube that’s wider than the rubber and eye. Be good to hear what others have done.

Thanks all in advance.

Hi, sorry I’m no help for your problem but once you have fitted/tested the shocks could you let me know what you think of them? I’m tempted to go for a set with the -1 springs

Not sure I understand but I would follow a per LR instructions. The 2 upper washers are not identical and their curved/convex side face towards the bushing. Puma 110" SW

Hey Pete, I’m not far from you in the southwest. May I ask your thoughts on the Alive Comfort Dampers - are they worth the extra money? Considering the set up for my 110. Thanks

I’ve done the backs which appear good, but haven’t managed to fit the fronts yet, so can’t be 100%. The old dampers were also terrafirma and knackered, so probably not a fair comparison Laughing

When I finally get the fronts done, I’ll report back on here. Injector seals are at the top of my list first though….never ending, isn’t it Rolling Eyes
