Hello guys, I'm in the process of installing my front shocks/struts which are bilstein 4600's on my gen3 montero, I noticed when you flip the shock end over end I can hear something sliding back and forth on the shaft under the dust cover. I removed the zip tie but realized the dust boots on there pretty good and don't want to have an issue putting it back on. Both shocks make the same noise so I'm assuming it's normal, but before I finish does anyone know what this is? Is there a bump stop on the shaft or something wrong, it's sounded more like metal than rubber.
Update: Just talked with Bilstein over the phone, got a representative immediately, for Gen3 montero's there is a bump stop on the shaft with a metal washer on top.
