need help on shock absorbers
I have been cleaning some shock absorber bolts and found several i dont know which car/year they fit
the first and largest head is obviously a model A,but what do the two smaller sized headed bolts fit ive got several different guesses .several have suggested early V8s used the smaller head the shank length and thread 7/16-20 is the same as the Model A any help or direction you can point me to would help thanks tom |

Re: need help on shock absorbers
The variation in the second two is likely well within allowable manufacturing variance and therefore they would not be uniquely different application wise, which was '33 at least through '37. '32s were an exception in that hex head bolts were used originally.

Re: need help on shock absorbers
As indicated above, the '32 shocks were attached with 7/16-20 x 1 1/8" hex head bolts, part number 20411. The head width was 5/8". The '33+ bolt was the same shank and thread size, but was a special bolt because of the offset forged head. Its part number was 305605.
