#1: Shock Absorber Bolts Which way round? Author: A10PSW, Posted: Wed Nov 27, 2013 12:47 pm ---- Does it matter which way round the bolts go in on the Shock absorbers for my 2005 206 1.4HDI?
ie Nuts on the inside or outside?

I bet this is from memory.

I doubt it really makes a difference though. They are probably inserted a certain way as it's easier in production. Getting the top bolt in from the outside with the wheel still in place can be difficult though.
