fitting pro comps to a td5
Steve shep:
Anbody fitted a set of pro comps to a td5? most i have seen advertised are for upto 98my.done some digging and found out that rear shock lower mounts are slightly different on a td5,& the pro comp pin isnt long enough to get bushes on etc.so has anyone come across any difficulties fitting them to a td5.
thanks shep.
suggs:
you could buy some after market mounts from Gwyn Lewis or D44 etc

Does yours have the cups on the axle round the bush and the procomp bushes are too big to fit into them?
If so then removing the cups is one solution, or use LR bushes.
Steve shep:
not sure i want to remove brackets! going down bushes route.hopefully origanal bushes will fit pro comp shocks.
thanks for advice,iwas hoping somebody had actually carried out for job to re assure me they will fit once i have got it stripped
shep.
clbarclay:
I have tried LR bushes on a procomp before. The pin on LR dampers is sholdered unlike the procomp, so the bushes are a looser fit.
Here is a thread on another forum about dealing with the cups from the lower brackets.
