Ok that makes sense. I know what you meant by cake lol I just didn't know how "cake" and "rear [shocks]) could be used in the same sentence lol

In regards to incorrect badging from factory, here's a funny story. I was working at a DCJ dealership and we were moving the inventory around when a fellow salesman says to bring the dodge caravan, I say what caravan? He says the gold one. I say it's a Plymouth voyager. He gets mad till we realize that the entire front was badged as a caravan, and the rear was badged as a Plymouth. Probably the best example of factory screwup.
