- For want of something to do (I guess), I have decided to look into the usability of the Andrex friction dampers on my '51 MG TD Mark II. According to Blower's Workshop Manual, "The casing is filled w

- The shocks that I've seen as supplemental on TD MKIIs are Andrex friction as I described. I am not sure on what the Andre Hartford are exactly. I have the Luvax double acting piston type hydraulic w
