Hi - I bought this kit a while ago (6 years?) and now the front shocks are dead. It was designed for a fiberglass hood, so they are pretty lightweight. I tried the FLAPS but the ones that *looked* the same were way too strong.
Anyone know who made this kit and/or what the replacement shock is? -Steve (I've removed the shock on the right, see shock (now with vice grips!) on the left...) (IMG:http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a84/siverson914/2009-02-01%20914%20projects/IMG_0632.jpg) |

I installed the ones from Camp914, and they work great.
