Default FLEX and EDFC

Does anyone have this problem where the shock body rotates, taking the EDFC motor with it? The only thing that stops it is the wire to the EDFC motor... im afraid this is gonna eventually snap the wires. Is there any way to prevent the shock from turning?

make your own brackets!

the bolt on top only holds the tophat to the shock's upper mount. it doesnt prevent rotation of the shock. There must be a solution! im think about a custom bracket that would fit inbetween the 2 upper bolts and clamp against the top nut on the shock assembly.
