Hi all,
Due to the positive feedback I received for my 3d printed friction dampers, I have made them available via Shapeways for anyone who is interested.
https://www.shapeways.com/shops/ibdetails
They are available as a set of 6, and as a single unit in case anyone breaks one and needs an extra! They are not "handed", instead the mounting nuts and friction adjuster are mounted on pedestals and should be removed with a razor saw, then reattached after the shocks have been mounted. The mounts are not included: either modify the kit ones with .040" (1mm) rod or scratch new ones, the mounting holes are integral to the part.
I searched all over for aftermarket parts for this old kit and couldn't find any, so hopefully these will help people out!
I hope you like them!
Ian
