Default Re: Shock Absorber Advice

Both of my Model A's have original rebuilt shocks. Both sets of shocks leak and they are a pain in the derriere to service. If I had to do it again, I would install modern shocks. I do not show my cars. They are built for safe touring.
If any of you have glycerin in your original shocks, drain them and use a petroleum base oil. If your shocks have hi-mileage, use STP as a fluid.
