I have an easy question for you that know parts. I have been trying to figure out what I am missing here but don't seem to know the exact part name. Can someone help me with this easy question? Thanks
BE AWARE....that when you press in the push pins....when you get down on each side of the inner skirt when you get closer to the frame... you better support it or hold it or you can bust it. These push pins can be a BEAR to get in and seated some times.
And...when you get the push pins all fully seated. The flap end....goes over the top of and around and under the top of your UPPER A-ARM....thus allowing you to CLEARLY SEE the shock absorber. And the tabs on the flap end...get slide under the UPPER A-ARM to keep it in place. The dust shield just does not lay there OVER the shock absorber and UPPER A-ARM cross shaft.

Yep Dub is correct, they can be a bear to get pushed in. Mine are also tucked in the way he describes it.
Hi,
The way the flap is cut it's possible to put 2 fingers on the other side of the fiberglass apron (above and below the hole you're working on) to support it while you push the 'pins' in place.

You can 'pop' those pins in with a small plastic hammer. Just give each pin a quick rap with the hammer to pop it in. Start with too light a rap and work up until you get it to go. You don't want to damage the inner fender wall.
