Ford Focus Rear Shock Mount Shims
These shims are machined from solid delrin, and are designed to fill the air gap left in the factory Rear Shock Mounts. The air gap is designed for extra suspension compliance, to give the Focus it's soft ride. However, for perfomance applications, this compliance makes the shock absorbers less effective. The shock is allowed to move 1/4" up and down relative to the chassis. This lost motion means your shocks are not as effective as they could be. Also, anybody who installs firm aftermarket shocks will notice a clunking sound coming from the rear when going over bumps. This is caused by the gold steel washer in the mount slamming into the rubber as the shock moves up and down. These shims have been engineered to fill the cavity in the stock mounts, make your shocks more responsive, and eliminate the noise from the rear shocks. You should not experience any increased noise or harshness, as the system is designed to keep the stock rear bushings, and retain the stock rubber isolators. They are available for $20 US, plus $5 shipping and handling, Or $30 CDN, plus $3 shipping and handling. I prefer to use Paypal, as it is quick and convenient for both of us.
