The ride is AWESOME.. so much nicer than my frozen Boge auto's. I checked the play on both the bottom bolt and top bolt comapred to the stock shocks and the holes were the same size. One idea that popped to my mind is that if the people who were having the rattling problems... if there current shocks were old and rusty in the sleeve area, and it wore down the diameter of the bolt or something?

I took it for a test drive about a mile or 2, consisting of some nice turns and lots of hard packed snow. The only rattling my car had was from the rear seat back in my wagon. I couldn't hear anything really from the shocks so they are doing really nicely... even over the constant bumps of the snow.
