Cheap shocks

[NOBLNG]

Come on…who hasn’t put a cheap pair of shocks on their vehicle?? I made these in about a half hour. I used .080” rod for the inner and a piece of 1/8”o.d. tube for the outer. And .032” brass rod and .050” styrene for mounts. I didn’t get fancy with the mounting points, but it would be easy to upgrade them.?

A nice detail tip. Sometimes you don't need "fancy" to do the job. ?

Thanks for posting this. I am stealing this for my big rig truck builds.

You’re welcome Guys. I don’t know where I got that piece of 1/8”o.d. from…I don’t have it on my stock list.? I did have to ream it slightly with a 2.1mm (.0826”) drill bit.
