guys I just picked up new Boge rear shocks for my SIX. Is it a special spring perch or will anyone work? Thanks in advance. Been 30 years since I restored my last car so it is a lot learning to get back in the swing. Jim |

Boge was the OE supplier. Pics would help. But pretty certain the stock deep stamped lower perch will do the trick. BUT..... they have no height adjustment. |

The perch is unique to Boge rear shocks. The three bumps on the shock body won't support other removable perches.
I've made a substitute before, I think using a cut off lower perch from a KYB. Maybe I can find a picture. |
