Hi Greg,
Like Joe says, Peter Caldwell at Nosimport.com will be able to get you what I
think are the best shocks available for your car. I got a set of the adjustable
units on my TR3 and they instantly transformed the handling of my car.
I had thoroughly cleaned and refilled the rear shocks on my car with 30wt. fork
oil. They didn't go too long before one started leaking at the shaft seal. As
my first experience driving a Triumph, I wasn't sure what to expect. After
installing the adjustable units on the car, now I know the difference. They
seem to be a perfect balance to the Spax adjustable shocks on the front. The
other shocks weren't doing much if anything.
I'd like to send Peter my old units to rebuild with the heavy valving as
spares.
I'll send you a photo of the adjustable units mounted in the car.
Dave H.

Subject: [Fot] Lever shock rebuilds
After an unexpected spin at COTA last weekend, I found a leaky right rear
shock. I'd like to think its the shock oil that made me spin but more likely a
bad line into turn 8.
Probably something I can't fix since it is coming through the splined shaft
area but curious if anyone sells rebuild kits for these shocks or if I need to
send off a spare set for rebuild by Apple or someone else.
Thanks,
