I'm thinking of trying a set of tube shocks...just wondering what shock numbers others have used ...?

I bought the kit from Snyder's. The kit is complete with brackets, etc. I don't know what the shock numbers are but they are appropriate for the usage and work well.

I have the same set from Snyders on my 30 Roadster. The rears are great and give a pleasant ride but the fronts were a little stiff (they could soften up with more usage), I found a set of rebuilt originals and put them on the front. The combination of both give a good ride and handling.

My front shocks are original type, Houdailles. I put tube type, Monroe 59017 shocks in the rear. These shocks cost about $25 @ and were relatively easy to adapt. Go to my profile and look at my two cars.
