Default Re: Armstrong (MGB) shock conversion

Be carefull you get the right shocks with the right model A frame spacing . Armstrong shocks were fitted to many different British cars, Ford Consuls,Zephers and Zodiacs included . These shocks have wider bolt spacing so you would have to drill the frame . The arms can be bent with heat . I use a cold wet towel to cover the shock body to avoid cooking the seals when bending and welding a ball on . They fit fine on the front but need to be shimmed on the back to clear the fender well .
