Thread: Rear Shock Links

  1. #1

    Rear Shock Links

    Hi,

    On my 49 Super I had a lot of noise coming from the rear end. It transpired that the bottom of one of the shock links had literally disentegrated and the other one had been repaired with a bolt all the way through and was loose. I had to make a temporary repair and have replaced both of the links with proper bolts, washers, aircraft nuts and lots of grease until I can order and fit some more.

    Do I just order the rear shock links or do I also need bushes for the links themselves? Is there anything else I should be changing at the same time?

    As an aside I made lots of progress on both my cars today so it's not all bad news!

    Cheers,

    Andy
