Default Front shock mounts width

Hey guys, I have powerflex front shock bushes/mounts. They are for a Rs turbo but I'm trying to fit into a bonus shell. Do anyone know if there is a differnt width or circumvence between Rs turbos and other mk4 shells? I'm raging if there is a different size!!

Well that's good news! I can't get the top piece to fit in. the diameter on it just seems a few mil smaller that the poweflex one.

I did but I think I just need for the top bit to sit on the bottom bit through the turret and when it's all tight up it should be ok. I can't get the top bit to sit inside the turret opening
