On our 85 Camaro Stocker we have a steering damper that is NOT a Quay or other purpose built part. It appears to be from another application. I was told it may be for a VW Scirocco or ?? Can anybody shed some light on what I can use. I am short of time and can't get a "made to order" on time and was hoping to source a part locally that would work.
Last weekend I noticed oil leaking from the existing damper. I believe as a result I experienced a severe wheel shimmy after the launch when the wheels touched down. Once was enough!
Any information or advice would be apreciated.
