Post by Karpov »

Hi

There is metal washer. Does it belong under shock mount nut or under shock mount? I didnt found pics.




My old was rusted and very poor so i didnt check it when i opened it.

my recollection is that the washer goes between the nut and the shock mount on the top side of the shock mount.
