Hi Kent,

Really admire what you do so those words coming from you means alot!! Thankyou. Yes the MDF has held up for the two I've done, it's taken a beating though! At least the hammerforms are easy to make/replace.

Thanks all for the interest, much appreciated. I've managed to get a little more work done on the shocker/spring mounts. Will try and post some pics of them tomorrow.

Default Spridget Rebuild

I am following along with your rebuild .
I also raced a bug-eye back in '62 that had a damaged right front corner that was supossedly fixed (not) by the local Austin dealer in Toronto.
Had the front shock up on a stack of washers with an all-thread bolt.
Woiuldn't do right hand corners worth s**t.
But still came in third in class.

Back on post #43 you show two sets of similar panels with two and three depressions.
Can you explain please?
