Shock absorbers - modern style

[Chris Haynes]

I will stick my MGB's. A direct bolt on.

What year MGB? Are fronts and rears the same?

No they are not the same, you need the rears.

Here is some info;

Would FRICTION Shocks, that bolt on in the original shock holes, be worth considering???

mac's shocks are gas filled. Should never be used on a model a. The model a does not have enough weight to compress those shocks. Get oil filled shocks if you are going to go that route.

bingo!

aren't the tube ones sold by Snyders and Brattons the same, oil filled type ?

Do the MGB shocks work well on the rear of an A?
