Are you getting a knocking noise going over bumps or are you just worried about the gaps between the shock eyelet, mounting bolt, and bracket? :?:

When I installed mine I bent the eyelet in some so there was no gap left. I never had a knock in mine. I had them on for maybe a year before I sold the truck.
