Rebuilt front shocks mounted

I installed the front shocks I got done by Andy. [email protected]

They were leaking, he exchanged them as he had a rebuilt set on hand, fast turnaround, I'm pleased.
Before and after pictures.

Looks like he does really nice work.

I'd just weeks ago had purchased a pair for a '46 I was working on. Good guy, good craftsmanship...

Hey guys,

I just removed my front shocks to clean them up, change the fluid and replace the linkage. It doesn't look like they were leaking but one of them the arm moves very easy. I'm guessing it needs rebuilding? Not to mention it 80 years old.

There should be definite resistance felt in both directions.

Thanks Kube. There's not so it's rebuild time.
