I put a set of new replacement shocks on my 28 A about 15 yrs back,they only did about 5000klms then stopped working,
I took them all off and just put them in a bin.
This last few months I made some tooling to disassemble the V8 shocks for my V8,s and having got them all working great decided to look at the old model A ones.
in a word they were cr-p.
cast iron shafts,not machined in side just as cast,no way of refilling or make up oil getting into the chamber,no difference in the damping (compression or rebound).
They look good on the outside but not inside.
I also repaired some V8 ones for a mate and two of them were repos,these too had a cast iron shafts that broke when I disassembled it.
No where near the quality of the originals
