Default Front Shocks

Both of the front coil-over shock absorbers (Spax) on my 1985 AC MKIV are seeping oil. Does anyone know the Spax part number and must they be purchased directly from Spax? Also are there other alternatives (Koni?)

Lonnie,

The Spax can be rebuild by Spax in the UK. Konis are available but expensive and often out of stock.

Look at the ACOC forum and see some of the shock options used by members. Search "shock" in the MK IV forum

AC Owners Club - Active Topics

Gerry Hawkridge at Hawk Cars in the UK has shocks also.
