NEW 1964-78 MG MIDGET / AUSTIN HEALEY SPRITE REAR MONROE TUBE SHOCK CONVERSION

Description: 1964-1978 NEW MG MIDGET MKII & AUSTIN HEALEY SPRITE REAR TUBE SHOCK CONVERSION KIT, WITH HARDWARE AND MONROE SENSA-TRAC SHOCKS. This is a rear tube shock conversion kit for the 1964+ MG Midget MKII and the 1964+ Austin Healey Sprites with rear 1/2 elliptic (normal) leaf springs. This kit replaces the original lever shocks with (2) modified Monroe Sensa-Trac shocks. All required hardware to install is included. I have used/sold these shocks on Austin Healey Sprites and MG Midgets without any problems over the past few years. Using tube shocks greatly increases the ride quality over the lever shocks. I HAVE SOLD 50+ SETS OF THESE FOR THE 1958-63 MIDGETS AND SPRITES WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS. A similar kit from Moss Motors sells for $215 plus shipping. These might work on the 1979-80 Midgets and Sprites if they do not have the tube shock conversion from the factory (I am not 100% sure). This auction includes quantity 2 NEW MONROE SENSA-TRAC tube shocks that have been modified to work on this application. It also includes Grade 5 hardware with locking nuts. The modified Monroe shocks have had the upper metal shock boot (dust cover) removed and the upper and lower bushings modified. They also include instructions and have a steel conversion sleeve installed. The Monroe® Sensa-Trac® passenger car shock absorber with PSD (position sensitive damping) and the Safe Tech™ system combines our exclusive precision tapered grooves in the pressure tube with application engineered valving and Fluon banded piston to improve the ride, handling, and safety characteristics of the vehicle. These features allow the Monroe Sensa-Trac passenger car shock absorber to adjust more rapidly to changing road and weight conditions than any other available shock absorber. The result: enhanced control with uncompromised ride comfort. All Weather Fluid: Contains special modifiers to reduce friction and ensure smooth rod reaction. Full Displaced Valving: Tuned specifically for each application, this valving automatically adjusts to road extremes to provide consistency and ride comfort. 1-3/16" Bore: Larger bore than most shocks to provide more efficient and consistent control. Fluon Banded Piston: Works with the existing groove tube technology to enhance responsiveness to changing road conditions. Unique Groove Tube - PSD: Precision tapered grooves in the pressure tube perform like an additional stage of valving for optimum ride tuning. Nitrogen Gas Charged: For improved ride and handling, helps maintain tire to road contact by reducing aeration. Special Seal: "Self-lubricating" fluid seal designed to retain gas without excessive wear or friction. Email me if you do not know if your car has 1/4 or 1/2 elliptical springs. Rear 1/4 elliptical springs are only half of a "normal 1/2 elliptical" rear suspension leaf spring setup. They mount towards the front of the vehicle and do not extend past the rear axle. Note: Actual application or fit may require slight modification or trimming to fit. I cannot guarantee this will fit all years listed above. The Monroe shocks have been modified and will show signs up close of where the dust cover and mounting sleeve were removed. This shock was designed to be used with a dust cover so keep in mind that by removing it, there is a slight possibility of shortened life since the shaft will be exposed to the elements now. I have not heard of any problems but I want to disclose all known information. If you have any problems long term please let me know and I will try to solve your issue.
