[Healeys] Tube Shock Conversion

[Mark Goodman]

To  those who are thinking of replacing your shocks.  I highly recommend
trying Udo's Billstein Conversion Kit.  I have had the original shocks in
the car since I purchased it from the original owner in 1969.  I top up the
shock oil every spring.  There were no significant leaks.  
 
I installed the conversion kit this summer and the difference was
unbelievable.  With the original Armstrong shocks, whenever I went over a
slight bump, the BJ8 literally jumped halfway across the road.  Now the car
is very solid and I am not concerned that it will jump across the road when
I drive somewhat spirited.  I highly recommend the conversion and am upset
with myself for waiting so long to do it.
