(sorry they are so big -- ) I bought an old trailer and these shocks were on it. Are they anything special to be saved?
Too cool to throw out. That looks like a light-duty axle. Do you know the capacity? They might work on a light hot-rod.
HRP is correct, early Ford. I bought a pair at the Portland Swap Meet last weekend for $15, but that was a deal. They list around $50 in the classifieds.
Not exactly friction. Houdaille shocks. Two of mine are exactly the same. Take hydraulic oil. Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
And they are adjustable...Those coil spring boat trailers tended to bounce around alot; those shocks were a good addition..Adjuster looks to be in the middle...
Fixed trailer axle, 13" tires. I wouldn't have tried to haul the 300 gallon water tank that was on it!! Sounds like the shocks are worth pulling -- it's gonna be a lawn mower trailer.
