Re: Brattons New Catalog SHOCKS
I believe that the man running M&S passed on. The really nice shocks were made by Bill Stipe but there was not enough support from buyers so they went away.But I know that he's considering manufacturing these again if there is enough demand. If you go to his website you can be put on the list to buy them.If enough of us do that then shocks will again be in the catalog.

Re: Brattons New Catalog SHOCKS
At 1 point M+S was a great shock . I started using them back in the 70's and i have them on my 180A now. Had a small issue with them but they made good one 1 shock. I use to send them mint original matching shock covers when the shock themselves were shot and put the covers on their shocks... Worked out very well years ago. Sad to hear he passed on..Was a nice guy to talk to. When i can and afford to i always buy items like this. They sometimes short supply and never will be around for a long time..Zinc trim for running boards, 31 running boards , some parts for the 180A made by A+L parts , I had a run for ACME dust covers and front seat frames for the 180A ,,now shocks ...Don't count on parts being around long that are good. To make a run it takes MONEY and a large amount to order to pay and sell for a good price so people can afford. IT'S A HOBBY
