Title: 1955 Willys Bermuda / Custom Shock Absorber Interchange
Post by: glennstin on June 13, 2022, 12:57:00 PM

  Does anybody know a modern part number for shock absorbers for our Bermuda and Custom Models?  The original numbers from my book show 809148 Front, Regular Duty and 906136 Heavy Duty, and 811643 Rear Regular Duty & 906137 HD.  These shocks are different part numbers than the 52-53 Aero models.

  For 1955 Willys front shock absorbers OESPECTRUM 5850 fit nearly perfect. The only difference is one end does not have the steel sleeve through the fastener end, but it easily can be removed from the old one and put in the n.ew one

  For some reason that quote would not show up.  I'll try this.
