Front shocks for Volare/Aspen?
 

Are there any front shocks out there that will work on a Volare without fabrication? I thought I had heard that there was a Rancho shock that would work, but the closest thing on measurements I could find was the RS99764, but it says "spec" for the lower mount. Not sure what that means? Cross-reference shows it to be for a Jeep Liberty.

The stock Volare shock is a stud mount, both top and bottom, 10.67 extended, 7.06 compressed, 3.61 stroke. Just looking for a some semblance of an upgrade from my heavy-duty CARQUEST shocks!

GOOD LUCK!!!!
In our experience NOBODY makes a shock anymore. You might try some of the street rod shops like Fatman or the Rod shop but right now nobody makes anything other than a stock replacement
I have a pair of the old Carrera adjustables from back in the day and they may as well be gold plated

Angelo Phillips and I have gone sofar as to look into having them custom made but with no success
all of the aftermarket companies-CE,lakewood,qa1 aldan etc lit them as the same as A-body which is wrong.
If you find some PLEASE post info because I know ALOT racers who would love to upgrade their's as well

as I said GOOD LUCK and happy hunting for your piece of unobtianium!

Michael,

I would just call the manufactuers. QA1, Strange, Afco, etc. They might be able to hook you up.

Michael,Angelo Phillips just came down to my shop today and let me know that Calvert will have shocks available in 4-6weeks so call cal tracs and put your name on the list.
