Softail Shocks Advice
Ok I screwed up and need your guys help and opinion.
This weekend I was installing a lowering kit on my 03 Fatboy. Got the shocks out, pressed them apart, installed the new studs, press them back together, and I lost one of the retaining clips. I searched high and low and I cannot find it. It is the round c clip that holds the spring inside the body of the shock. Looks like a piston ring.
I went to the dealer and they do not sell that part individually. I asked if they could give me an old shock and they refused, stating liability.
So do I beg you guys for an old shock or if anyone has the retaining clip.
Does anybody know where I could buy one? I hate to buy a new shock forthat one part I lost.
Would someone sell me one or that part alone?
Would a piston ring work in a pinch?
It is beautiful outside, my paypal account is ready, and I am itching to ride! What would you do?
