    Default Armstrong Shock Question

    Greetings all.

    Just got my Armstrong tube shocks back from the rebuilder. (Thank you Terry!!!) Getting ready to put the springs on and put them on the car.

    Question: Shouldn't those shocks have two ring nuts apiece?!? One to support the spring and the other to act as a jamb/lock nut?!?

    If so, to whom do I speak about obtaining ring nuts for those shocks?!?

    As always, any and all assistance is greatly appreciated.

    Sincerely,

    How many do you want and, upper or lower? Upper is a larger diameter than the lower.
    We have at least three sets of these.

    Very reasonably priced.

    Default the rings the thing

    you should run two per unit

    way back when we only ran one to save unspung weight

    now we are older and wiser......nuff said?
