Were you to contemplate fitting tubes, the Ahead4Healeys kit for the =

can=E2=80=99t comment on AH4=E2=80=99s front tube setup.

=E2=80=93 from my experience =E2=80=93 it=E2=80=99s a good combination.

I need to rebuild or replace the shocks on my BJ7.  I have the original =
ones on the car and the leaks on the floor are telling me it is time.  =
The handeling is also poor.

Other than Apple Hydraulics and World Wide Imports are there other =
sources for rebuilding?  What sort of experiences have there been with =
rebuilt shocks.  Good, bad anyone to stay away from or go with?

Fred
