Who did you get your shocks from
Earlier this year I found a complete set of reproduction shocks and links for my 30 coupe in Iowa which was about a 5hr drive each way for only $400. I went and got them and installed them on my car which had not had shocks since it's 1970s restoration. They are reproductions and not originals but I will say I can't really tell a difference in how it rides lol. I do love having them on though. Next is a wiper motor for my car that will certainly never see rain. Excellent tutorial. I wish I had this before I installed mine.
Which is safer and rides better? Rebuilt original style shocks or properly valved tube type gas shocks?
My 1930 coupe rides like a dream!
Great video I purchased new shocks for my 1928. Haven’t installed them yet so this was a very helpful video.
Well explained & excellent camera work.
Good stuff! Thanks for sharing.
They do make a difference, don't they?
