Subject: [Tigers] Shocks
Message-ID: <CAKb_wf=rR7HLXTypF_547ORY-sc8zvPkzVwU=G=eY-+AWKi-GA@mail.gmail.com>

Has anybody bought shocks recently? I've been searching through the forums
and I see a lot of different part numbers and brands but most of them don't
pull up on the web anywhere.

So, I'm looking for good current part numbers that are available for sale.
>From the forums it looks like KYB would be a good choice but their website
doesn't list anything for Tigers.

Thanks,
Joe

They do not make them for Tiger.  If I recall, you have to buy one
designated for different cars.  Then you have to press out the tube in the
bottom for the rear.  On the front, if I recall, it may have worked ok.
But its total extension was a tad too short.  So when you jack up the car,
the suspension is held up by the shock.  And I guess there is a chance for
it to hit the extension if you bounce over something too much.

But regardless, I finally sprung for the Konis.  There is a difference.
I'm glad I did.

Koni's Rule!

The adjustability is a great advantage, and it is possible to set the ride
"stiffness" to make it more comfortable on trips with your "Honey", or
stiffen it up for your next turn on the Autocross Pad.

Spring for the top of the line, and you can adjust the ride without having
to remove the shock.

Your MMV.

your shocks set to?

I?m looking for a set of side badges. Maybe you have the set
That I need - laying on a back shelf?

Currently I have reproduction badges reading ?260.? 

(It doesn?t matter to me if they read ?Sunbeam? or ?Powered by Ford?
Above 260.)

However the flash chrome badges have more of a ?3D? appearance
And are what I?m looking for.

I?d prefer flash chrome badges reading ?289? if possible but ?260?
Would do.

My Tiger has a 5 bolt 289.
?
Please pm  if you have a set, with your price, including
Shipping to zip code area 30306 (Atlanta).

Thanks :)

Keep it British with SPAX adjustable shocks. I like 'em on my car.

Tiger shocks are on page 11 of the catalog:

Non UK buyers don't pay the VAT that is baked into the catalog price of these.

I'm in the KONI camp, too. They are a known item and KONI provides great support. One other thing I like is that they can rebuilt to your specs or needs, in terms of valving.?Mike

Classic Garage sent me this response:

Sorry, we are out and have no plans to order a new production run. We 
need to order a minimum of 50 of each shock for Koni to make them. 
Unless a club or other organization wants to commit -? with deposits, 
to? more than half of the run, this is not happening. Used to be we 
received lots of queries and had deposits for a fair number before we 
ordered, even with that, it took nearly 5 years to sell 25 cars worth. 
You are only the second inquiry we have had since we ran out in 2020. 
Does not look like there is enough demand any longer.
Good luck,
Ann

My car, B382000331 is a 30 year old restoration.  It passed through Norm?s hands, who did a bit of work on it before selling it.  It won 2nd place in the original category on the west coast Tiger gathering just before I bought it from a feller in Hayward, CA.  It won?t win any concours today, but I?m still emphatic about keeping it original.  What I would like to do next is get all the hose clamps to be original configuration. Does anyone have a list of the clamp sizes/types used?  Or even better, a source of supply?  I?ve put together a partial list, and found some suppliers, but a lot is missing.

Thanks!  Chris

Sounds like a good situation for an active Tiger club to think about taking on, maybe? But, the cap ex up front is pretty serious, probably better to do as a group buy, I guess. Anyone want to quantify the current demand? ;)?

Chris, there was a list on the TEAE website i think.. and maybe in the list
if you search the archive.

What i will say, the Rootes wire screw clamps aree available from MOSS
iirc.. the tiger used a few USA ford clamps on various hoses and then there
are the odd sardine clamps for the servo hose (iirc moss has them.. if
not.. there was a parts source on CAT forum maybe 4 months back ..
seach "austinhealer" as the poster.

It has been awhile since I reviewed this doc, so there could be some errors.

 

Radiator and Ford tower screw clamps come in a kit from Mustang catalogs.

Moss Motors has double wire clamps ? you need to check their latest size listings.

PCV hose uses a single wire Corbin clamp.

My car, B382000331 is a 30 year old restoration.  It passed through Norm?s hands, who did a bit of work on it before selling it.  It won 2nd place in the original category on the west coast Tiger gathering just before I bought it from a feller in Hayward, CA.  It won?t win any concours today, but I?m still emphatic about keeping it original.  What I would like to do next is get all the hose clamps to be original configuration. Does anyone have a list of the clamp sizes/types used?  Or even better, a source of supply?  I?ve put together a partial list, and found some suppliers, but a lot is missing.

 

Thanks!  Chris

I forwarded the Classic Garage email to the parts manager of CAT and 
asked her to put the word out.? Maybe they can generate some interest as 
well...

Just an FYI from my Corvair side of life; a Yenko owner looked into 
having his Koni's rebuilt to retain the 1966 date code originality. He 
was directed to a Koni service center. They wanted $250 just to service 
EACH shock, $980 in parts and $400 to paint the shocks (apparently not 
included in the rebuild price). That came to $2,380 less tax and 
shipping. Ironically the shocks could be purchased new for $623 for the 
set of four. So, if you are considering buying Koni's because they are 
rebuildable you might want to reconsider that. Here is a link to the 
noted discussion thread: 
http://corvaircenter.com/phorum/read.php?1,1168960,page=1

Personally I looked into purchasing the parts to rebuild the Koni front 
set I have and I could not find ANY source for parts. They seemed to be 
available for the motorcycle line but not the automotive line. When I 
consider the above experiences and the reply from Rick I get the 
impression Koni is only interested in the exclusive customer that has no 
problem in paying the exclusive price.

Is there a reason people aren't using SPAX ? They are adjustable,  have
shocks made for Alpines and Tigers and iirc were better value than the
Koni.. they are not rebuildable... But they cost less than a Koni
rebuild... And you get new shocks ...

I like my SPAX.  Externally adjustable, unlike the Koni's.

They wanted $250 just to service EACH shock, $980 in parts and $400 to paint the shocks (apparently not included in the rebuild price). That came to $2,380 less tax and shipping. Ironically the shocks could be purchased new for $623 for the set of four. So, if you are considering buying Koni's because they are rebuildable you might want to reconsider that. Here is a link to the noted discussion thread: http://corvaircenter.com/phorum/read.php?1,1168960,page=1

They seemed to be available for the motorcycle line but not the automotive line. When I consider the above experiences and the reply from Rick I get the impression Koni is only interested in the exclusive customer that has no problem in paying the exclusive price.

Unless a club or other organization wants to commit -  with deposits, to  more than half of the run, this is not happening. Used to be we received lots of queries and had deposits for a fair number before we ordered, even with that, it took nearly 5 years to sell 25 cars worth. You are only the second inquiry we have had since we ran out in 2020. Does not look like there is enough demand any longer.

I have KYB front and rear shocks on my MK1  and love the way they ride and 
handle. I bought them on EBAY with free shipping for $145 pair fronts and 
$145 pair rears. search ebay for "KYB Tiger"

Is there a reason people aren't using SPAX ? They are adjustable,  have
shocks made for Alpines and Tigers and iirc were better value than the
Koni.. they are not rebuildable... But they cost less than a Koni
rebuild... And you get new shocks ...

Message-ID: <2Mdhq5uZzm7Wr2MdiqXREf.1685065991.626e29137edc28b0791eed63827cddd5.MISSINGID@comcast.net>

The Spax catalog in the classic section shows a listing for the Sunbeam Tiger 64-68, in the $150 range per shock front and rear.  They appear to be single adjustable so rebound and compression change together.

I got Spax shocks for my car back in the 60?s.  Replaced a set of Koni shocks.  Didn?t like the damping characteristics quite as well, but the ability to adjust on the car was revolutionary.  Soften up, drive to an autocross or cross country, get to the event, turn them up and compete, post event set down for the street and drive home.  Many competition cars weren?t trailered in those years.  A great ability to accommodate street comfort and autocross performance.  Or to adjust to your individual preferences.  My set are still on the car, which exited regular competition in the late 90?s, but my two SCCA autocross national championships in 1974 and 1975 were with the Spax shocks.  Would be worth exploring if you need shocks.  They also might custom make a set of double adjustable shocks if you were interested.

I think I started this thread a few weeks ago.  My car started to bottom
out and I finally figured out that I had two blown shocks and my
leaf springs were sagging.  I got the springs re-arched and started looking
for shocks.  I have a car show coming up this weekend, so time was a
factor.  I looked at Koni and Spax but the lead times were way too long. So
I decided to go with KYB.  Looking through the different forums I saw
different part numbers and I finally settled on part number  KG5562 for the
rears and KG4616 for the fronts. The rear shocks were a perfect fit.  On
the front shocks I needed to press out the steel bushing spacer on the old
shocks and insert them into the KYBs.  Super easy and they also fit really
well.  The whole car now sits a little higher and the handling is a million
times better.

Thanks for everybody's input.

Thanks,
Joe Brown

Where and how did you get the rear springs de-arched?  I'd like to lower my
rear springs on the Alpine a little.

I googled "leaf spring re-arching" and found an old-school place in San
Antonio (Ace Spring Service, about 1.5 hours from me).  They mostly deal
with heavy trucks but they can handle any leaf spring.  I told them I
needed to lift the back of the car about 1.5" and they basically separated
the leaves and put them in a big press.  My old springs are liable to start
sagging again in a few years because of the old metal.  I asked the guy at
Ace about re-tempering the springs and they don't do that anymore.  He said
that back in the days before they had the more modern giant presses they
used to have a forge and they would heat up the metal and then beat it into
shape with sledge hammers.

The only source I've found for new leaf springs are some of the suppliers
in the UK.   Tom Hall doesn't supply them anymore.  I would like to know if
anybody knows of a US supplier.

Thanks,
Joe Brown

I live in western Massachusetts.  A couple of years ago I had Ferrara Spring, Co. in Springfield, MA re-arch the springs for my Mk1A to raise the rear end approximately two (2) inches.  They charged me a whopping $72.00 for what is now a Tiger looking like it's ready to pounce!

During restoration I found mine to still have remnants of blue which I believe to be original since there were also factory yellow paint markings on the casting.

In general, I believe the transmission is painted the same color as the engine, which could be black or blue dependent on when the engine was assembled.   Everyone should carefully examine their transmission for traces of original color and note any markings.

The B19KC engine group could have black for the spring 1965 assembly time or blue for the Oct. 1965 assembly time.

 

I?m not sure the early Borg Warner transmission were painted.

You got a good deal.  I had to pay $218.

Message-ID: <001301d99409$8f55ed50$ae01c7f0$@bluefrog.com>

It is good to see people adding part numbers for the replacement shocks we
need on our cars.

 

The Tiger Parts List does not list the shocks or at least my copy does not.

 

Alpine Parts List 6600992 Series IV          section MA

5220811                Shock Absorber                S/D by 5221220

5221220                Shock Absorber

 

I found 1 of my original front shocks - this is listed on the barrel.

 

1223  8  71                          this looks like a Rootes part number
but I can't confirm that

ARMSTRONG

Armstrong Patents Co Ltd

York England

Patent No 6        Subsequent Rights

Type GT/7           71109/  Date 3/65

Some of the print is worn so could be a miss read or omission here.

 

Here are some dimensions

 

Shock max travel length - 4.16"

Tube diameter = 1.88"

 

Anyone have an original rear shock to share similar info?

My Tiger had a Delco replacement with a 1968 date code.

 

I believe it is always wise to understand the original parts so we can make
better choices with replacement parts.

Have you looked into the new ELEMENT fire extinguishers? I hear really good
things about them, from their very low weight, to their longevity and their
effectiveness at putting out fires without wrecking everything after.

Would be worth investigating, I will be when mine current extinguisher goes
out of date.
