BN6: Shock absorbers do not fit after renewing the link arms

It was mentioned earlier to get measurements of the stud diameters. The taper in your first photo looks more drastic on the new piece. Also much wider.

From length the old an new ones are the same. The taper/cone of the new one is a little bit (about 0,4 mm/0,40 inch) thicker at both sides. But the old link arms are really worn out.

I bought mine at Limora, a German supplier. Will try to get one from Moss or AH spares.
