Short Shocks

I know pete & Jake has them but who makes them for them. Ride hight from hole to hole is 9 3/4. Any help part #

 

Opp's 32 ford rear

 

From what I understand, P&J's hold the pattern rights and therefor are just about the only ones manufacturing them. I can't confirm or deny that though so take it with a grain of salt.

.

 

Bilstein shocks makes some too. They are supposed to work a lot better than the P&J shocks. I am about to buy some.

 

Check Aldan shocks web site. They may have what you need plus their guaranteed for life.

 

Go to:

And find the shock that will work for your application.

I went through the same search last year for my shocks. Lots of time on the Monroe site and calling several shock company. In the end I bought the P&J shock anyway.

Speedway SM582

 

Yes, I recommend these. They are the same dimensions as the P&J's but are gas charged and work better in my opinion. They are also Made in the USA, and cheaper.

 

I just recently purchased short shocks for the front of my Model A build. Monroe 5752 from O'Rielly's $22.00 each. They are for early 50's Jeep: 49-50 Plymouth early 50's VW bus.






nickelone posted a link to the monroe specs. you can look these up in there.

 

mine for my coupe: Monroe #32134 late 70's Mopar (Cordoba, Fury, Charger)

 

The smallest shocks I could find were Pro shocks,15 K on them no problems.

 

have a look at the vw beetle shocks, cheap as cheaps and pretty small.

 

thanks guys

 

Pro shocks makes them under the part number SM 300. 7.5 closed and 10.5 extended. Made in the USA. Cost for a pair under $90.00. They come with 1/2 inch sleeves.
