    correct shocks for 67S?

    I am doing mechanical work to my 67S.

    replacing bushings, ball joints etc.

    The shocks look to be timed out.
    What is the correct shock for 67S and where does one find a set?

    My sway bar also appears to be worn and could use replacement. Any ideas on sway bar replacements?

    Koni has a website with application data. Look for classic shocks, should be there. If you are in the US, Jason at Paragon products is a great source. He is a member here too.

    If you are looking at fitting the correct struts for a 67 S, Koni rears and the inserts for front struts are readily available, they will however need to be repainted if you are wanting to replicate how the originals back in 67 looked.

    In terms of front Koni struts, these come along for sale every now and then, I do know of someone who has a set for sale, if you interested let me know.

    Regards

    Would be interested to see a picture of the front struts you refer to. I was told that correct 67S Koni's were no longer available
