Mopar Front Adjustable Shocks
I'm looking for a source of single, or double adjustable shocks for the front of a 73 & up B Body Mopar. 68 to 72 B Body shocks will NOT fit. Anyone have any ideas for off the shelf units?

Re: Mopar Front Adjustable Shocks
Thanks to both guys for the help. I thought I checked out Strange before but could not find anything. Race parts are very limited for these cars. Thanks!!

Randy at Fastshocks can build a set of Afcos. However, he is moving his business to a new shop and will be open early November.

Re: Mopar Front Adjustable Shocks
I have a set of Afco/Fastshocks by Randy for sale. There off my 1970 Duster so they probably won't work.

I know this is late, but I'm new to the forum. I went through this exersize last season, trying to find shocks for my 73 Charger. Viking supposedly makes them. I ordered front and rears from PST. A couple days later PST said the fronts were no longer made. I then ordered Strange fronts from Summit. The order kept getting pushed back, so I cancelled it. I did some research, and the only other car that uses a front shock this short is a mid 70's Mustang II. I ordered a pair of single adjustable QA1s. To make a long story short, I got them to fit, but one side is rubbing and I have to clear the opening in the K member some more. I can provide more details if you're interested. I later found out that Viking does make them. I think PST or Viking doesn't list them because the control arm needs clearanced for installation. |
