Hi,

Does anyone have the bolt on telescopic damper brackets for sale?

They were generally fitted to the earlier chassis’s as the later chassis’s had the brackets incorporated.

Many thanks

Jake

Congrats Simon!

Have you looked at Coolex based in Nottingham.

They make bespoke rads and I am currently dealing with them now regarding a rad build for my car. Friendly guys and happy to help during these times.

Not sure if anyone else has any dealings with them?

Hi Stu I asked him what the options are, as he doesnt make the brackets anymore he would have to make one set which meant they are expensive!! With the new chassis having them already incorprated there just isnt the need anymore for large produciton. I have the coilover front suspension kit to go on...

Hi Stuart

I have also contacted Gerry regarding the telescopic dampers. My car is an early chassis aswell and therefore requires the separate brackets. I’d be keen to know what you decide to do.

Does anyone have any advice on the options for a 1997 chassis? I’ll give Gerry a call and seek some advice but looking to refresh all the suspension and bushes and was aiming to take the opportunity to fit telescopic dampers. But it sounds like it may not be possible?

Thanks in advance

Thanks Stu,

Have you had any experience with them?

Thanks

Has anyone replaced the REAR lever arm shocks with any of the telescopic offerings for MGB's?

such as the spax kit? see link: https://www.moss-europe.co.uk/rear-tele ... -kits.html

And if so, is it a simple bolt on job or are chassis modifications required?

Thanks

I’ll be there.

Will come and say hello.
