AE shocks

Post by Nacho45acp »

Would the guts of the AE team car shocks fit the threaded body shocks?

It depends which threaded bodies. the v1 threaded bodies would work. The newer style v2 shocks would need the still available parts. Do you have part numbers or pictures

No pics or part numbers. They are the grayish shocks that came with the Team cars

Is the threaded shock you are trying to put pieces in flat on the end where the shock shaft comes out?

ImageIf it is flat then the internals will work.

Those are them. 👍👍 What part number are those for the front/rear for the World car?

The rears are 1.32, but they never made that style in the proper .71 for the front. Only the V2 version that came on the Worlds re-release.

You could get the earlier threaded shocks in an .89, but that will require the use of a taller front tower.
