There is a lug on the bottom of the shock which should locate into the arm then a bolt goes in and holds together

Does anyone know if Bilstein B4 (Black) rear shocks should use the same mounts as standard or do they come with their own?....I'm just wondering if this could be anything to do with it?

I really am tearing my hair out over this now!!! :evil: :evil:
